Hand Built Oyster Platter - Large, Twelve Wells, Talavera Inspired

Oyster platter, approximately 13", painted to order. Each platter is a unique, hand built, artisan creation. Oyster wells are individually sculpted into the platter, which adds incredible interest to the piece. No stamps or shortcuts here.

This platter-sized work of art is a new offering from our shop based on a custom order from one of our wonderful customers for a larger sized version of our popular oyster plate. These have twelve wells and can be created with smooth or scalloped edges. Since each piece is made to order (usually 4 weeks to produce), you can choose the colors and even the pattern.

We use high quality white stoneware clay and food-safe glazes. The process of taking raw clay through shaping and building to leather-dry stage, an initial bisque firing, art glazing, and then final kiln firing can take from 3 to 6 weeks,

That's why you can be assured each lovingly crafted piece is one-of-a-kind treasure.

Commissions welcome.

NOTE: Hand built pottery is not machine-made or mass produced. Expect each work of art to be visibly human-made and unique. Slight imperfections in surface smoothness, edges, and glazing are normal and desirable.
