Eight arms, one crown, and absolutely no humility. She gathers her violet tentacles into a regal spiral worthy of a ballgown and settles the little gold crown exactly where she knows it belongs – and the deep looks on, delighted, because it has never pretended not to love a diva. Art deco adored geometry; the octopus is geometry with opinions.

In violet and gold she is part sea creature, part society page: the spiral of her arms echoes a spiraling staircase, a rolled program, the curve of a cocktail glass. Whimsical but never silly, this is the plate that starts conversations and quietly steals them. Perfect above a bar, beside a bookshelf of Jules Verne, or anywhere that could use a monarch with a sense of humor.

Generous 10-inch fine ceramic with a high-gloss glaze. For the maximalists, the mollusk-curious, and anyone who has ever suspected the real house beauty is under the sea.

Part of the The Ocean Deco Collection of art deco decorative plates.

Beauty is everywhere.
