1690 Speak, Memory dish (Medium)



1690 Speak, Memory dish (Medium)
Handbuilt terracotta dishes, decorated in white slip and sgraffito, designed for Speak, Memory, a special exhibition at Casa Cabana for Milan Salone del Mobile, 2025.
The surface decoration is inspired by a memory of Chinese Imari porcelain, glazed in sooty blues, lavender greys and faded orange, with motifs in relief moulded from antique cookie and chocolate moulds; depicting a tiger, or a bird, a lotus flower, or a beaver and a butterfly, all of which have deep-rooted symbolic meaning evocative of good fortune and longevity in Chinese culture.
There are two designs in this size; one features Chinese paper lanterns at the centre and the other depicts flowers in a blue and white vase.
Dimensions: Height 2cm, diameter 32cm
Additional Notes: Wash gently in warm, soapy water.
