Handmade Pineapple Plates on ETSY by CherryHillStudio

Take a look at these beautiful hand made plates by Diana of Cherry Hill Studio!


Diana says ~ "The pineapple is a familiar symbolic image of "welcome, good cheer, and warmth and affection" throughout the history of America. I hand built this plate out of stoneware clay and then added the pineapple design using a small pineapple rubber stamp and by drawing the larger pineapple by hand. It was then bisque fired. The glaze is a beautiful glossy sunny yellow which highlights the pineapple design..."

"All the pottery you see in my shop is hand made by me in my studio here in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas. I make only wheel thrown or hand built pottery. Most of my pieces are functional but occasionally I will list a whimsical piece or two. All of my glazes are lead free and food safe. They are microwave and oven safe. I love colorful pottery and am constantly experimenting with different glazes to come up with beautiful color combinations..."

Beautiful stuff huh?! :)
