Super-elegant, sophisticated and fun display stand for your favorite cake, hors d'oeuvres, fruit or anything you would like to raise and spotlight for attention--for the kitchen counter to your dining sideboard. This handmade, Victorian-modern piece is the perfect combo of vintage and contemporary style with a festive flare in deco and shape, so while beautiful in use, it’s classy all on its own.
A great centerpiece for a special day, gift for momentous occasion or display for that everyday, quiet moment. The stand is in a cake-complimentary cornflower blue, the top glossy and the sides satin. The brushed on stripes of deeper blue accent the raised allium flower patterns, draw your eye around the form and add a playful quality.
All of my pottery is one-of-a-kind, and designed and handmade by me alone in my Massachusetts studio. I threw this form in two parts on the potter’s wheel, and later carved the foot and “skirt” to create a playful undulation. I decorate the surface with sponged and trailed slip (the clay version of, well actually, cake-decorating) in shallow textures of swirls, dots and patterns.
My influences vary from Art Nouveau to Haute Couture, from furniture to fondant, and these stands bring it all together!
Dimensions: 3 1/4" h x 8" diameter with 6 1/2" diameter, top display space.
My work is both elegant AND intended for your use and enjoyment. Handmade pottery can need (and happily, deserves) a little more love to prolong its life than contemporary manufactured ware. While durable, hand washing is recommended.
The clay and glazes are lead-free and food safe.
