Emily Stackman Australia Studio Pottery Platypus Plate and Bowl hammered and the fabulous green polka

and the fabulous green polka dotted band running above the landscape

and blotter paper

(or just admiring:)

these sorts of baskets were only produced when plants were at  the right stage of maturation

Emily Stackman Australia Studio Pottery Platypus Plate and Bowl hammered and the fabulous green polkaThis charming matching plate and bowl set were made by Emily Stackman (now Emily Laszuk), a professional potter based Miranee, Lewis Ponds, NSW, Australia, who has been creating pottery since the mid 80s. They are my very favorite examples of her work that I have seen, perhaps in part because of the fabulous nature of the platypus itself! Stoneware, hand thrown and hand painted, I think they make the perfect pieces for serving cocktail hour snacks,
