Serve up delicious appetisers and canapes on this Simple oval platter from Astier de Villatte. Votary of pre-industrial fabrication, Astier de Villatte is celebrated for being the one and only studio in Paris to hold and harbour the traditions of artisanal ceramic production. Restoring the ancestral systems of moulding and stamping, the Simple Oval platter is made using handcrafting techniques from the Middle Ages which involve moulding a handmade sheet of clay, double firing the 'biscuit' piece and glazing the product in white enamel ' a lengthy process that involves a drying time of up to one month. Characterised by a clean oval form and a high-gloss finish, the platter is engraved with the brand's signature crest - depicting an interlacing A & V - alongside the initials of one of the 40 master artisans who created it. Each handmade piece tells a beautiful story, it romances and imparts a sense of nostalgia into its owner. Arrange with other glazed platters in the collection to breathe an air of authenticity into your dining collection. Artisanal production gives each ceramic object a unique aspect, meaning products may slightly vary.'We ask people to produce with a good spirit so the pieces look almost alive.'Benoit Astier de Villatte and Ivan Pericoli, Astier founders
