Round Plate | Yellow Stripe | Kari Radasch

$110.00

A jubilant round serving plate with a jumble of fun, colorful shapes.  Features a subtle stripe of yellow around the underside.  Measures approximately 10″ in diameter.

My earthenware pots are both sparse and embellished. My dishes are structurally straightforward, while the surfaces include bold, graphic, and painterly ornamentation. I revel in this dualism by collecting, arranging and garnishing; then organizing, simplifying and editing both my forms and surfaces.

I pluck joyous observations from my surroundings. I reassemble and reimagine these investigations, like sketches in a sketchbook, onto functional dishes – a format which has the unique ability to hold a warm, sentimental place in our lives.

I have always been a fashion before function kind of gal.  I think of my dishes as the “platform shoes of pottery” – they are party pots with utilitarian concerns. I hope they are used at your most meaningful occasions and help punctuate important moments in your life.
