Shield Platter - Black Majolica

As a child I was both terrified and enthralled by the masks and shields of Papua New Guinea that lined the long, long, long dark hall way leading to the bathroom in my Aunty's house. These images have been infused in my mind and are now translated in terracotta platters. Therapy or Homage?

Hand formed serving platter made with a terracotta earthenware clay.
Glazed with a white tin glaze and pattern in onglaze.

Length: 35cm    Width: 15cm     Height: 3cm
Measurements are approximate.

CUSTOM MADE TO ORDER

If a piece you like has been sold I can do a custom made order just for you. Just contact me on info@kristinacooke.com and we can take if from there. Generally it will take 4-6 weeks to ship as there are many stages to handcrafting unique ceramics, not the least of which is multiple firings in the kiln!

________________

All of my pieces are hand made, variations of shape, colour and pattern will occur. This is the beauty of hand made pottery.

Hand washing is recommended to increase the lifespan of any ceramics.
