Vintage Flying Carpet Restaurant Plate


Fabulous, vintage plates from the Flying Carpet Restaurant.

Hand painted plates show a young "sultan" flying over the city on his flying carpet.  The edge of the plate is detailed in classic middle eastern shapes and red fezzes.

I can't find much on the Flying Carpet Restaurant.  I don't know if this existed in Milwaukee or if the plate was brought back from some other city.

So far, I have only found one other on eBay, and they were asking $10.99.
