Botanical Ceramic Tray by Gerry Unsworth | Signed Studio Pottery

Handmade Botanical Studio Pottery Inspired by Nature

Some pieces earn their place in a home because they are beautiful. Others because they are useful. This botanical ceramic tray manages to be both.

Gerry has used a lighter earthy glaze on this piece, which catches the light beautifully and gives the tray a wonderful warmth. Set against this soft backdrop, the hand-painted botanical motif appears almost to move across the surface. There is a delicacy to the brushwork that brings the design to life and showcases Gerry's remarkable talent.

At Stanley & May, we love pieces that work hard whilst looking effortless. This tray is equally at home on a desk holding pens, in a bathroom keeping toothbrushes neatly organised, or sitting proudly on a mantelpiece displaying a favourite box of matches. It is these unexpected layers that make a home feel interesting, collected and personal.

Beautiful enough to stand alone as a decorative art piece yet practical enough for everyday use, this is the sort of object that quietly becomes part of daily life.

Signed by the artist, this is the kind of studio pottery that becomes tomorrow's heirloom.
