Our chunky china is very different to mass-produced pottery. Expect to see thumb prints, specks in the glaze (which may also be thicker in some parts than others). If there is colour on it, remember it is hand painted so there may be areas where the colour has taken more than in others - it’s what makes our chunky china unique and full of character. Perfectly imperfect pottery and proud of it!
Our Holly and Ribbon Collection offers a fresh, modern twist on "decking the halls with boughs of holly," while staying true to the signature chunky style you love. Each piece features a hand-drawn, hand-painted holly sprig, elegantly wrapped in a flowing ribbon. And don’t worry—there are no sharp thorns in this festive design!
No matter your festive décor, our Christmas platters are the perfect choice for serving up mince pies, canapés, or even the main event—whether that's turkey, a nut roast, or your holiday favourite. They're also ideal for creating a stunning centrepiece with candles or displaying sweet treats on your dining table. The possibilities are endless!
There are two styles of our Holly and Ribbon design platters:
* FRILLY: frilly edges, larger holly in the centre with a ribbon around the base of the platter
* CLASSIC: classic thumb print edges, holly to the top/centre and the ribbon circling the edge of the platter

***Remember that the pink version has pink berries too, the red and green versions both have red berries***

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.
Christmas: Holly and Ribbon platters
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.
Our china is not fine and delicate, it is chunky and full of texture. It is handmade (and homemade) and has a very different look and feel to mass-produced pottery. It'll have thumb prints and markers marks but it is made with love and we hope it brings you joy for many years.
