Accent dishes, cast initially from an actual leaf, are distinctive in design as the concrete captures each leaf's vein pattern. These handpainted concrete dishes are lovely displayed individually or they add a striking accent to a grouping. They could also be used to hold potpourri, small scented soaps, etc.
A few "faux lava" dishes, cast using black pigment, are kept in stock. Special orders are accepted for a different pigment colour and/or a different dish. Pigment wears especially well outdoors. Other pigments we carry presently are Cherry Red (looks orange), Cocoa, Deep Beige, Emerald, Light Ocher, Mahogany, and Straw.
Two coats of transparent concrete seal have been applied and protective pads are on the base.
Casting concrete reproductions of the furry hollyhock leaf results in a dish with its own unique texture. This original leaf dish, currently available in only 1 size (6.5"l x 6.25"w), looks exquisite when painted.
