This hand-thrown large ceramic dish is a captivating blend of cultural pattern and artistic expression. Its wide, gently curved form provides a striking canvas for the bold design within. The interior features a playful yet elegant pattern of purple umbrellas, each hand-painted with delicate detail and varied in orientation to create a sense of movement. These vivid purple motifs stand out against a dynamic black and white Ankara-inspired background, rich with geometric and organic shapes typical of African wax print fabrics. The high-contrast backdrop adds energy and depth, while the smooth glaze enhances the colors and offers a glossy finish. The exterior of the dish is left in a subtle matte or neutral tone, allowing the intricate interior to take center stage. Both functional and decorative, this piece brings global influence and contemporary flair to any setting.
