Ra Ruffled Buffet Plate 13"

Select collections are hand painted with 24k gold and genuine platinum, and then each piece is individually set by hand into kilns, where at high temperatures the glass drapes over handmade ceramic molds. Precious metals permanently fuse to the glass during this step, and the glass “slumps” into their mold’s individual patterns, rendering each piece of Annieglass a unique work of art. The 24k gold and genuine platinum reveal the artisans’ individual brush strokes, as well as a slightly distressed appearance  from the organic materials’ movement during kiln fire. These effects are by no means a defect, but rather are intentionally crafted  into every unique Annieglass piece to celebrate the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi—in which asymmetry and “imperfection” enhance beauty.

Sized to stack with the Ruffle Dinner Plate and Ruffle Salad Plate for a complete glass dinnerware set, the Ruffle Buffet Plate, with its clear glass base and ruffled edges in either 24k gold or genuine platinum, also matches with any patterned plate for a contemporary spin on the classic china table setting.  It could also be used for a cake or cheese and crackers.
