CLARE SPINDLER Large Pearl Serving Platter

A large round serving platter with a streamlined architectural shape.

This could be used as a fruit bowl or to serve a large sharing dish at the dining table.

With its pared-back, minimalist form, and a neutral glaze, this platter would fit into a wide range of interior schemes, and would also make a special gift for a housewarming or wedding.

The edge of the platter tapers out at an angle before gently tapering with a curve down to the base, to create a slightly enclosed form. The effect is angular yet soft. 

Made at Turning Earth in Leyton by Clare Spindler, the platter is hand-thrown on the potter's wheel in a stoneware clay, and glazed in "Pearl", a glossy off-white glaze with subtle palest grey tones.

Also available at Land Tales in a Matte White glaze.
