Wheel-thrown in speckled stoneware clay, hand-painted with porcelain slip and cobalt slip detail, then glaze-fired to 1250°C. Overpainted with 24-carat gold lustre and refired at a lower temperature to fuse the metallic detail.

This large dish was made to hang on the wall or serve as a statement platter. The design draws inspiration from ancient Greek, Roman, and Persian pottery, with a touch of Delft influence in the border. Every element has been painted freehand, with sgraffito detail etched in using a fine pin blade.

There is some slight crazing—very fine crackle lines from the glaze cooling quickly in the kiln. These are only visible in certain lights and do not affect the structure of the piece. Please see close up images for more details.
