Artisan Wood-Fired Flower-Pattern Tray

This wood-fired tray, which can serve as a teapot stand or a dessert plate, offers a tactile experience that reflects the beauty of traditional firing techniques. The rough, blackened texture reveals a high iron content in the clay, giving it a raw, earthy feel. The contrasting hand-pressed flower design stands out against the coarse surface, creating a striking visual effect. After being exposed to intense heat for two days, traces of flame are visible, adding depth and character to the piece. The underside tells its own story with a subtle golden sheen and unique textures, a result of the flame’s dance during firing. While perfect for serving tea or desserts, it also makes an elegant jewelry tray, elevating its aesthetic appeal in any setting. What would you use it for?
