Description
These striking and unique Leaf Coasters are perfect for your mug of tea or glass of wine! I use real leaves foraged from local arboretums and national trust locations to make these individual Leaf Coasters. So they are unique, handmade and inspired directly from nature, mimicking the seasonal colours we all love.
4 Leaf Coaster packs are available in 3 colour ways: Fresh Green, Autumn Red, and Rustic Green. Each colour pack contains 4 coasters in varying shaped leaves as shown in the images. I also have two green designs, made from Foxglove leaves and Bergenia leaves. These come in packs of 4 of the same design.
Making Process
During the making process, I use a unique leaf to make an impression in clay and then cut around the impression into a coaster size shape. I use a wide firing range clay to make each piece and depending on the final colour variation, I fire the piece twice between 1055 – 1260 degrees. This allows different colours to mature in the kiln depending on the glaze recipe.
Product Details
Dimensions vary depending on the leaf used, so the largest coaster design is typically 13 x 15 cm leaf face. The smallest design is 8 x 12 cm leaf face. All sized designs are suitable for mugs, wine glasses and cups.
Variations
Every leaf used in the making is unique, so this means every coaster is unique. I will aim to match colours to the images shown as closely as possible, however there will be variations in shade and depth of colour.
Care
Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid washing in water to prevent damage to the felt backing.
