Sold individually - matching set of dishes for olive oil and cracked pepper for dipping bread? For jewelry or as a trinket dish? Maybe a soap dish or sponge rest. Spoon rest or tea bag rest? Even as a tapas plate. Perfect size for a million things.
These are almost entirely made from reused / recycled materials. The leaves had fallen naturally, the clay is my own recycled clay from trimming scraps (white stoneware clay), and the slate blue glaze is recovered from when I clean mug bottoms or wash my brushes. I formed them by hand and pressed leaves from my yard into the still-wet clay, fired them, rubbed underglaze into the recesses, glazed the leaf impressions with green glaze, waxed the glazed areas, dipped the dish into my recycled glaze, and fired again to 2223 F. I sand the bottoms so they are smooth.
Sold individually. This listing is for one of the ceramic dishes - choose which one in the 2nd and 3rd photos.

This is a handmade, one-of-a-kind creation, with imperfections, and I hope that you will use it and enjoy it. I have tried to provide images that demonstrate the complete picture, but if you would like an additional image of a certain area, or if you have any questions, please ask.
See my FAQ about use in the oven, microwave, and dishwasher. It boils down to mitigating the risks of thermal shock and abrasive detergents by using simple precautions similar to glass ware.
I will cushion the heck out of this when I ship it, and I package in recycled materials.
