Exclusive, one-of-a-kind dish handmade by Sofia Roe.
This striking creation uses blue and orange glazes which sit on opposite sides of the colour wheel. In this instance, the blue represents a calm and responsible energy, while the orange represents happiness and energy,
This piece was produced by applying wax to the base, and then glaze-dipping the pot into the two colours, Terra Colour Pot Pourri and Chun Blue.
Pot Pourri is an effective red with a lightly shimmering surface, which is emphasised with a thicker application. As seen here, it is particularly attractive when applied in different thicknesses.
Chun Blue is a boric blue effect glaze with greyish white dispersions
This small dish is one of the first pieces marked using this 'SR' ceramic stamp.
There was a little glaze migration onto the base during the firing process which is reflected in the price.

Stoneware
9.5dia. x 6.5 cm
Stoneware is fired at very high temperatures making the clay strong enough to be used as dinnerware. It retains heat well and distributes it evenly, and is suitable for oven use.
Although stoneware is dishwasher safe, hand-washing is always recommended to preserve its original appearance.
