Description
Material
Stoneware with mid-white clay and clear matte glaze
Craftsmanship process
Our Raised Cat Plates are casted in moulds with mid-white casting slip. They’re then air-dried and hand-trimmed before our artisans hand trace and paint them with food-safe ChrysanthosTM underglaze. Finally, they’re sprayed with semi-matte glaze with a warm pearl-like finish.
Design
This unique collection of pet dining vessels is state of art. Inspired by an ancient Chinese dinning vessel represents the elegant dining customs of ancient Chinese civilisation, we blend the timeless aesthetics with the need to improve our feline friends’ dining experience. The elevated plate minimises contact with cats’ whiskers and ensures an ergonomic feeding position, reducing neck strain for your feline friends and improving their posture – all for a more comfortable dining experience. Each piece is decorated with strikingly colourful patterns, sculpturally designed to offer a new visual experience from every angle.
Versatility
Suitable for serving food for cat and some small dogs. Please consult your vet if a raised dinning vessel is suitable for your dog, before purchasing our raised plate.
Options
The same ceramic ware is available in another 3 colour-ways.
Note: We photographed our Raised Cat Plates under studio lighting and corrected in post-production to ensure colour accuracy. The 100% hand-crafted nature of these plates means every piece is unique and slightly different in dimension and volume. Because the colour patterns are meticulously traced and painted by hand, you may discover slight differences in pattern size, shape and position. These small differences reflect the handcrafted nature of Poppy & Pepper ceramics and should be embraced.
The glaze settles uniquely on each plate, occasionally creating noticeable ‘needle holes’ on the exterior. These subtle variations in appearance are a testament to the handmade craftsmanship of Poppy & Pepper ceramics and should be embraced as part of their charm.
