Important: Marigold and Lettice chunky china with hand-painted colored glaze elements will have a creamier white background, unlike the bright white background of our all-white china.If you are ordering pieces with color alongside all-white ones and prefer a uniform background tone, please leave a message at checkout.
Roasting/pie dishes don't have to be boring and functional; they can be pretty and functional too! Take for example our asparagus dishes – perfect for oven to table dining - and deceptively deep so perfect for a pie or crumble too.
There are single asparagus spears at each end - almost handle like if you will! Available in pure white or full-on colour, each spear is hand painted so expect each to be similar but not the same.
As you'd expect with a roasting/pie dish, they happily can go in the dishwasher, oven and microwave. Available in a oval shape in either a medium or large size.
- Medium - £50
- Large - £65

Getting your perfect piece to you is our priority but as each piece is made to order (we don't hold any pieces in stock), the process takes a MINIMUM OF FOUR WEEKS although this is just a guide and if it goes over please bear with us, if it goes under let's celebrate!

Our china looks and feels very (very) different to mass-produced pottery; it’s not fine or delicate, but wonderfully chunky and full of texture, you’ll see thumb prints, makers marks, glaze specks/drips and heaps of individuality. We call it perfectly imperfect pottery and firmly believe it’s all the better for it!
Please note that because each piece is unique the design will be different from the one in the picture – similar but unique.
Marigold and Lettice pottery is (hand)made to be loved and used, and happily goes in the oven, dishwasher and microwave.

WIDTH LENGTH HEIGHT Medium oval 20 cm 25 cm 5 cm Large oval 25 cm 33 cm 6 cm Marigold and Lettice pottery is made to be used, loved and enjoyed; it’s made using sturdy earthenware clay and a thick white glaze. This means it’s hard-wearing and every piece can safely go in the oven, dishwasher, microwave and even the freezer.
Each piece that is made by Marigold and Lettice is totally handmade and a one-off. So, if you see thumb prints in the clay or the glaze that may be thicker in some parts than others, it's because each piece is unique and is what gives our chunky china its specialness, and a different look and feel to mass-produced pottery.
When you first get your chunky china piece you may hear a ‘ping’ - especially the first time the pottery meets with water. If you do, please don’t worry, it's really quite normal and will stop as soon as the glaze/clay settles down together. You may also notice that the bottom of every piece is left unglazed, and this may leave a slight residue on your shelves, but can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth.
Like with all china, over time you may also notice signs of use in the glaze, but these are just signs of the china being well-loved. If this is the case, please be assured, the piece will still be perfectly fine to use.
