The piece
The clay is laid over a leaf picked in the garden and pressed by hand; the leaf burns away in the kiln and the cast remains. That is why every dish has different veins.
Poured green glaze, which pools in the hollows and lightens at the edges. The ladybird is modelled separately and applied before the second firing.
