Hand-pinched English porcelain large plate with painted botanicals.

All plates are hand-cut, pinched and shaped like a sculptural piece. Once formed they are slowly dried to prevent warping, then are sponged to refine the form. when dry they spend 24 hours in the kiln in a bisque fire at 1800 degrees f. after cooling and removal from the bisque fire, the pieces are gently hand sanded and sponge bathed. the art is approached in a painterly manner. Careful mark-making balances the playful intention behind each work of art. the base is hand signed, the piece is glazed and then fired in a glaze fire for another 24 hours at 2300 degrees f. a third firing occurs after an application of the 22k gold bijoux detail. The period of time from start to finish for one plate is about 1 month in the making.

Hand-washing is recommended for your future heirloom.
