I was inspired to make this dinnerware set after visiting a community apple orchard this summer. The hand painted leaf on each piece is based on an apple leaf in the sun. The type of clay I used is called 'Driftwood', perfect for this 'tree collection'. They look like something you might find sitting in a tree, like a gift from a passing druid. Although they have a natural and laid-back aesthetic, they are functional and easy to use. The lip on the plate keeps your toast where it's supposed to be. Each mug handle is crafted to be comfortable to hold and each rim is easy to drink from. The bowls are the perfect size to hold cereal or snacks securely, and they are stackable. Each piece is wheel thrown and glazed by hand, and kiln-fired so that it is food-safe, microwave safe, and dishwasher safe. Small variations and imperfections are a result of the hand-making process.
