winter birch side plate - early design



winter birch side plate - early design
Shallow plate thrown with a blend of textured iron-rich clays and glazed in Winter Birch, one of the finishes in the Birch collection.
Winter Birch: Looking out at a grove of birch in late winter / early spring, their spindly, draping purple branches and sleeping catkins covered in drops of fresh rain. Catching the low, golden evening light. A smooth, purple-blue-gold glaze with some crackly glassiness and pale flecks from the clay that peek through. Made with silver birch ash.
A perfect dish or side plate for a slice of pie with dollops of freshly whipped cream, a buttery croissant with jam, or a small leafy salad.
Dimensions: approx. 17 cm upper ø x 2.5 cm H. For best care, wash by hand.
Early version: This version of the winter birch side plate uses a clay (heavily grogged) that I no longer use which gives a slightly different finish to the current winter birch side plates. It also has a slightly shallower profile.
