So this little dish is made using a really cool technique. The bubble rim of the dish is hollow! It's thrown on a pottery wheel and definitely takes a bit of practice. As soon as I saw them ready to paint I knew I wanted to do a fish design. I'm now in love with painting cute little fish!
This dish is 5" diameter. It could be used for a million different things! I definitely had cat-dish in mind when I made it but it could truly be used for anything you like.
note: There is a tiny pinhole on the bottom of the dish. Because the rim is hollow there has to be a way for air to escape so that the piece doesn't explode in the kiln.
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Each piece of pottery is fired at least twice in the kiln. This part of the process vitrifies the clay so that it is no longer porous. That means nothing can be absorbed into the ceramic. Hand washing will always extend the life of any piece however, all of my functional work (mugs/tumblers, etc) is dishwasher & microwave safe.
* Exception: If your piece has gold on it, do NOT microwave or put in the dishwasher
Two questions I get a lot:
Red wine and coffee: will these drinks will stain your pots? I can say wholeheartedly that I have personally tested this very thoroughly, staining is not an issue.
Hot drinks in tumblers: tumblers can be used for both hot and cold drinks. It comes down to personal preference. If you prefer a handle for your hot drinks, a mug is the way to go.
