Saddle Butterflyfish - Medium Platter - Seconds 1
This medium platter depicts a Saddle Butterflyfish (Chaetodon ephippium). It is found in the Indian and Pacific Oceans near Sri Lanka, the Cocos-Keeling Islands, Tuamotu, Marquesan, the Hawaiian islands, southern Japan, and northern Australia. Like all butterflyfish, it feeds on coral polyps, so it inhabits shallow coral reef areas.
The reason this platter is a second is because I completely forgot to paint the blue bands this species has in real life….!
The platter is handmade with Australian porcelain and hand painted with watercolour-like underglazes. As with all handmade objects, it may have some irregularities which contribute to its unique nature. It is fully functional and can we washed in the dishwasher, though I would recommend not putting in the microwave or oven as the abrupt changes in temperature might crack the clay.
The platter measures 28cm long, 19cm wide and about 2cm high and comes in its own recycled cardboard gift box.
By purchasing this item, we will contribute to Carbon Positive Australia’s carbon sequestration projects by planting one native tree or shrub in Australia.
If you are local to Sydney, you can come and collect from our studio. Just use the code INNERWEST at checkout and we can natter the details over email.
