Leaf Serving Plate - Dinnerware

Featured In The Ethicurean, Bristol, United Kingdom

Price from $80 to $100

Creation: 3-4 weeks

My Leaf Serving Plates make a striking change to the more traditional dinner plates or serving platters. Made using real ‘Glory Vine‘ leaves or ‘Paulownia’ leaves and decorated with a rustic green speckled glaze with ‘toasted’ edges and dark green leaf veins.

Making Process
Firstly, I use a Glory Vine or Paulownia leaf to create the leaf impression in clay and then I form the shape into a plate. The foot of the plate is created by applying a second leaf to the base for that extra special finishing touch. My Leaf Serving Plates are the perfect way to make an instant, bold impression at your dinner party.

I use stoneware clay fired to 1260 degrees, making each plate durable for functional purposes. All glazes are dishwasher and food safe. However please read the additional care instructions below.

Product Details
Dimensions: typically 22 x 32 cm leaf face with a depth of approximately 2 cm.

Care
Please treat as a bone china plate. Hand wash in order to retain the integrity of the lustre on the edges. Hand washing will also help to retain the glossy finish on the overall glaze.

Dispatch
In stock, ready made items will be dispatched within 3 days of order confirmation.
Please get in touch with me if you would like a bespoke piece made (3-4 weeks delivery).

This piece is made to order as a commission only. You can choose the leaf I use to suit your design and also the dimensions you require.

Ceramics Inspired By Nature

Hi, Welcome to 'Ceramics Inspired By Nature' I make unique ceramics using the impression from real leaves. Each piece is individually handmade with love and healing intention. I make leaf tableware, wall art, vases and porcelain leaf jewellery and also accept commissions of any kind. You can even send me your own leaves and I will create something very special for you.

I first qualified in a Ba (Hons) ceramics from Bristol Bowerashton in 1995 under the guidance of Mo Jupp, Walter Keeler and Nick Homoky. This was a rich and immersive learning experience with three renowned potters as my tutors. In later years, I taught ceramics part-time at Clifton High School, running clay clubs for the junior and senior pupils. Although this was a rewarding experience, I decided to leave teaching to then focus my attention on becoming a professional ceramic artist in 2013 and blend my love of ceramics with the healing arts and nature.

Today, I sell my ceramics at local and national shows such as 'Celebrating Ceramics', Craft in Focus and also local art trails in Bristol and North Somerset. I also sell my work at select galleries in the South West such as the A2 Gallery in Wells and on select online platforms such as www.jewelstreet.com.

My ceramics has been aired on national TV in the UK on the 'Great British Menu' and used by Executive Head Chef Niall Keating for his 'chocolate frogs dessert' in 2020. My creative process using clay and leaves, has also been shown on ITV on the 'Love Your Weekend' show hosted by Alan Titchmarsh.
