Linora Dotted Stoneware Side Plates Set of 3 - Green

This is a set of three stoneware side plates, each handpainted with its own green pattern. One carries a ring of round dots, one a sunburst of long brushstrokes divided by fine lines, and the third a circle of small stemmed dots that reach in from the rim like sprigs. Each plate is 22cm across and 2.5cm tall, with a gently wavy rim and a shallow well, which makes a generous side plate size: roomy enough for buttered toast, a wedge of cake, a small salad or a starter.

Because the three patterns differ yet share one green, they work well mixed at the same table: give each guest a different design, or stack them on an open shelf so the rims show. They suit breakfast, afternoon tea, a cheese course or a weekend brunch at the kitchen table, and look just as much at home laid out in a dining room. The brushwork has a loose, relaxed feel that sits happily beside wooden boards, linen and plain glassware, and they make a cheerful present for someone setting up a first home.

The plates are made from 100% stoneware, which is fired hard and makes a sturdy material for everyday use, and the pattern is painted by hand, so the brushstrokes vary a little in length and weight from one to the next. Care is simple: they are dishwasher safe, microwave safe and oven safe, so you can warm them in the oven before serving, reheat a portion on one in the microwave and put them straight into the dishwasher afterwards. For a relaxed table, lay one design at each place and let the patterns alternate around the table; for a tidier look, stack all three together on a dresser.
