Description
Our acorn serving plate takes the shape of the whole nut, from the short stem at the top to the rounded tip, in white glazed ceramic. The cap is raised in a pebbled texture, just like the real thing, while the body falls away into a shallow well marked with fine ribbed lines that run its length. A soft speckle in the glaze gives the white a gentle, earthy look rather than a stark one. It measures 21cm long and 15.5cm wide, and it is 3cm deep, so it sits comfortably on a table without taking over.
Set it on the kitchen or dining table as a serving plate for fruit, nuts, sweets or small bites, or keep it on a sideboard as a pretty dish for keys and other small things. The all-white colour sits happily alongside plain or patterned tableware and suits both modern and traditional rooms, so it never has to match anything in particular. The acorn design brings a quiet woodland feel to the table, whether you are laying out a weekend breakfast, a cheese board spread or a simple pile of fruit on the kitchen counter.
The plate is made from ceramic with a glazed finish, which gives the surface its soft sheen and lets the raised texture of the cap catch the light. To keep it looking its best, wipe it with a soft damp cloth and dry it straight away, taking a little extra care around the pebbled cap where crumbs can settle. Like any ceramic, it is best handled gently and kept where it will not be knocked against heavier dishes. For an easy table setting, heap fruit or nuts in the well and leave the cap clear so its texture shows, or wrap it in tissue as a small gift that feels thoughtful without being fussy.
