We 🤍 our ❤️ and ✏️ pieces and we also 🤍 our ever popular 👑 saucers/cake plates too so it was an obvious marriage to blend them together and give you the opportunity to design your perfect plate. What’s more we've added two new plate designs (petal and daisy), you can even choose the size of the heart, added in a heart/arrow option and also offer a mini ‘love’ now too. I know, it’s a veritable pick-and-mix of chunky china!
Now each heart/arrow is hand painted (no transfers or stencils for us!) meaning each will be different in shape and size and all the better for it. It’s the same for the love word – it’s painted freehand so each will be unique to you.
Size wise, it’s an ideal plate for a piece of cake, sandwich or just about anything lets to honest!

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.
Marigold and Lettice pottery is (hand)made to be loved and used, and happily goes in the oven, dishwasher and microwave.

please note that this is an approximate size as each is handmade so may be slightly different size wise!
WIDTH HEIGHT 12 cm round 1.5 cm Marigold and Lettice pottery is made to be used, loved and enjoyed; it’s made using sturdy earthenware clay and a thick white glaze. This means it’s hard-wearing and every piece can safely go in the oven, dishwasher, microwave and even the freezer.
Each piece that is made by Marigold and Lettice is totally handmade and a one-off. So, if you see thumb prints in the clay or the glaze that may be thicker in some parts than others, it's because each piece is unique and is what gives our chunky china its specialness, and a different look and feel to mass-produced pottery.
When you first get your chunky china piece you may hear a ‘ping’ - especially the first time the pottery meets with water. If you do, please don’t worry, it's really quite normal and will stop as soon as the glaze/clay settles down together. You may also notice that the bottom of every piece is left unglazed, and this may leave a slight residue on your shelves, but can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth.
Like with all china, over time you may also notice signs of use in the glaze, but these are just signs of the china being well-loved. If this is the case, please be assured, the piece will still be perfectly fine to use.
