This medium platter depicts a Blue Swimmer Crab (Portunus armatus). Found Australia-wide, they are often spotted around seagrass meadows and shallow sandy inshore waters. To see a video of the Blue Swimmer in its natural habitat, click here.

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. This is a listing for the product in the picture.
