Octagonal Petal Dish - Large
Octagonal Petal Dish - Large
I am a large Octagonal Dish. It is a very delicate job to hold precious items for it involves not just the trust of the user but also the touch of a gentle petal. Be rest assured, whether it be plump berries or exquisite diamond rings, your items are safe with me!
Curator's Notes
Porcelain petals converge to form a beautifully decorative dish that adds a bit of artistry to any setting. The refined shape is a perfect container for precious items or a serving dish during dinner settings.
