Hand drawn oval tray

This oval tray is approximately 7 1/2″ x 13 1/2″

Each piece is hand-drawn using the Sgraffito technique. Sgraffito (Italian: “to scratch”) is a decorating technique produced by applying layers of colored underglazes or slips to leather-hard pottery, then scratching through to create contrasting images and patterns that reveal the clay color underneath.  I use dental tools and choose a finer tool as the details grow smaller. Each piece is one-of-a-kind.
