My first plate


This porcelain plate albiet somewhat lopsided came out great in terms of color and pattern. It is also wonderfully light. It's a little too rough to serve food on but as a catch for a plant it would be superb. I love everything about this plate except the little poo-colored blot in the lower right. Because of a power failure in the neighborhood (due to the strongest winds in a generation here in Seattle) the glaze had to be twice fired and it created interesting crackle effects.
