Bukovina Cocosul, large plate from Romania

The plot motif of the ceramic from Botoșani expresses the history, life, folklore, traditional customs and surrounding flora and fauna. The decor is carved into the dried, but not yet burnt, engobe glaze with the help of the “sgrafitto” technique. There are many farmers and lovers on the plates bowls and pots, but also pub owners, weavers and shepherds. The green color symbolizes the forest, yellow the sun, brown the mother earth and white stands for purity. The ceramic is in the same tradition as the pottery from nearby Kosiv, the Huzul capital, in Ukraine.

Handmade on a wheel & hand painted with natural colors.

Size: ca. 25 cm diameter, both sides of the plate are glazed, dishwasher safe
