Etsy - LaMuerteTienePermiso 8 Dessert Plates 20cm Beeswax Finish - Set Of Red Handmade Clay Tableware
Description
These plates are made with a beeswax finish on natural clay with a warm red colour. PRODUCTION Handmade in Mexico by a small community, where the tradition is for women to pick the clay up from the mountains around the town. The pieces are fired with firewood in a brick oven, without use of oil, gas or electricity. The colour of the clay is natural & it is given by the mixture of clay & stone powder from the same region. The pieces are burnished, this is an ancient technique which is about polishing the pieces with a hard stone like quartz, this process closes the pores of the clay making it watertight & creates a unique shine & soft texture without any glaze added. To create a special & vibrant colour as well as unique shine the pieces are showered in liquid beeswax, creating a very thin cover that penetrates the first layers of the clay, to add an extra watertight layer without changing the taste of your food & it is resistant to boiling liquids. SIZE 20 cm. / 8 in Diameter 1.5 cm. / 0.6 in High CARE Food safe. Hand wash only. You can be confident in the using forks, spoons & table knives with these products. Be careful with sharp knives as they can scratch the piece. IMPORTANT - These are food safe but it should be noted that with use they will become permanently stained if any foods with oil or color are put on them which is part of the unique magic of the natural background of its production, this characteristic is what makes that world known restaurants use them in their menu as you can not get this effect with any other industrial type of production. 8 Dessert Plates 20cm Beeswax Finish - Set Of Red Handmade Clay Tableware
