Every time I do a glaze paint test piece I get so many messages asking for it to be turned into an actual piece to purchase that I have! Meet my very own paint palette range. Each one will be different because, well, that’s just our jam (and the one in the picture won't be the one you get because each piece is only made once I receive your order), but each will feature a rainbow of glaze colours available on either a medium or large oval platter.
At this stage, these pain palettes are only available to preorder on a platter - but who knows, in future they could feature on plates, mugs, bowls, jugs and anything else in our repertoire! Can’t wait, message us to discuss a bespoke order for you.Shown here is the large platter.
Anyway, back to the paint palette platter! It will be a hard working piece in your kitchen as it has so many different uses - serving dish, fruit bowl (plate), tray for candles or condiments, just about anything.
It goes without saying - but we'll say it anyway - that it will happily go in the oven, microwave and dishwasher!
Medium - £50
Large - £60

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 Large rectangle 29 cm 35 cm 3 cm Medium rectangle 25 cm 30 cm 2 cm Large oval 25 cm 33 cm 3 cm Medium oval 20 cm 25 cm 2 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.
