The Cellar Appraisal

The Cellar Whitewater Dinner Plate

This item is identified as The Cellar Whitewater Dinner Plate, measuring approximately 11 x 11 inches. It is a square or nearly square ceramic or porcelain plate with gently rounded corners, presented in a clean, glossy white finish. The material appears to be a durable stoneware or porcelain, consistent with modern dinnerware. The underside of the plate, as depicted, features a raised, square-shaped footrim, indicating it is designed to sit slightly above the surface it rests upon, which also provides stability and prevents scratching. Centered within this footrim is a clearly visible manufacturer's mark in black text: 'the cellar' in a stylized font, followed by what appears to be care instructions and possibly country of origin, though the smaller text is not fully legible in the provided image. The overall construction suggests a contemporary design, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century. The surface is smooth and free of significant visible scratches, chips, or cracks, indicating good to very good used condition or possibly new/lightly used. The white color is uniform and bright, reflecting light evenly, which implies a high-quality glaze. There are no other distinguishing decorative features or patterns on the underside. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for mass-produced dinnerware, focusing on functionality and a minimalist aesthetic.
