Note du spécialiste

This rare porcelain plate is from the Black Ribbon service, designed by Ilya Chashnik in 1923-1924. The Suprematist series were among the most experimental and innovative productions of the State porcelain factory. These designs are based on abstract geometric forms, influenced by the works of Kazimir Malevich and his followers Nikolai Suetin and Ilya Chashnik.
