All my life my writing has been commented on due to it being oversized so it seemed the right (or should that write!) thing to do to put it on my pottery, and a cake stand works so well with a handpainted word on it.
Don’t take my word for it though (pun intended) - you can choose your own word and it will be repeated twice around the pedestal and you can choose your own colour too. Caveat being, that it has to be six letters or less *if you want a word over six letters please email hello@marigoldandlettice.co.uk and we can discuss options.
I don’t mind what word you want – name, affirmation-style word or even swearing. It’s your pottery so your choice!
As well as the oversized word the edging of the pieces is also coloured. All will be lowercase, including the first letter. What's more, you can also choose to add a little rosy red love heart on the piece too (if the word includes an i or j the heart will be in place of the dot!)
Will the words/edging be perfectly coloured? Will the words be the same size or same thickness? No, no they won’t – I don’t use transfers or stencils - it’s perfectly imperfect chunky china after all! Each piece is written and painted freehand with heaps of texture and individuality.
Colour choices
- Blue
- Green – bright
- Green - dark
- Orange
- Pink (shown in the picture)
- Purple
- Red
- Yellow
There are two sizes to choose from: standard is perfect for a good-size cake and the jumbo is for, well, much larger cakes! Both are about the same height on a really fab pedestal!
*It's worth noting that because each cake stand is made by hand the shape/slope of the pedestal on each stand will be slightly different...
- Standard - £80
- Jumbo - £95

Getting your perfect piece to you is our priority but as each piece is made to order (we don't hold any pieces in stock), the process takes a MINIMUM OF FOUR WEEKS although this is just a guide and if it goes over please bear with us, if it goes under let's celebrate!

Our china looks and feels very (very) different to mass-produced pottery; it’s not fine or delicate, but wonderfully chunky and full of texture, you’ll see thumb prints, makers marks, glaze specks/drips and heaps of individuality. We call it perfectly imperfect pottery and firmly believe it’s all the better for it!
Please note that because each piece is unique the design will be different from the one in the picture – similar but unique.
