Soft, romantic pastel hues decorate this glistening white earthenware clay plate. The central image, reminiscent of a succulent plant, anchors the composition, while leaves on a vine adorn the border in green. Though this work brings to mind imagery of succulents, the abstract design encourages each individual to see something new and unique within this remarkable ceramic.
