Each plate with a characteristic pattern of crazing in the glaze and areas of pitting, both inherent to the medium.

Fine and unobtrusive surface scratches in places.
The emerald green elements of the design vary from plate to plate due to the fact that the process of firing in a wood furnace persisted until 1953 in the Madoura atelier. The irregularity of this process meant that the shade of green would vary from bright emerald green to dark green. The 'D'Apres Picasso' stamp dates the production of the plates to pre-1953.
