Blush Toned Crystalline Platter

My blush toned crystalline platter was hand made and carved from high fire stoneware. I love the contrast between the carved, unglazed matt underside and the high gloss, crystalline glaze. You can see a little of the underside when it sits on the table and it just makes the piece extra special. The crystalline glaze combo was created from glazes which I made in the studio. This is a decorative piece, I don’t recommend serving food off crystalline ceramics, though dry food like biscuits or placing pieces of fresh fruit on it should be fine.

There are many steps to making crystalline glazed ceramics so it is incredibly time consuming, but I hope you’ll agree that the results are worth the effort! My crystalline pieces are glaze fired to 1300 degrees celcius over 16.5 hours. They are dishwasher safe, but I recommend to hand wash them to preserve their beauty.
