Clay Fossils - Handmade Pottery, Blue Bee Garden, spoon rest, garlic grater

Drawing by Susan Walton pressed into a slab of clay with blue accents. This item can be used as a garlic grater because of the raised texture. Just grate your garlic clove on the surface of the clay and add olive oil and or herbs for a great little dipping dish for bread. Great to use as a soap dish, spoon rest or a small tray for olives and pickles. These pieces are approximately 4.5 inches in diameter and will vary slightly in size, shape and color as they are handmade, one piece at a time. They are not completely round and the distinct difference from piece to piece shows the beauty that you can only find in handmade work. Covered with a glossy food safe glaze and fired to 2000 degrees F (earthenware)
