Shallow-Dish
First of all, I don't make plates and anybody that does deserves a lot of money for doing them. I do, however like to flatten out the bottoms of some of my larger bowls until the become more like platters. This one is not very big, as you can see in the picture.
The glaze is a combination of two of my standard glazes. This batch of firings had a lot of iron earthen colors in it.
