These plates were all
hand thrown gifts to give to our family and
wedding party at our March 8th, 2003 Lake Charles, Louisiana wedding.
Getting them thrown was
not an easy task!
(I actually made over 100 of these, but only 56 or so passed my Q
and A!)
The average size was
14-15 inches,
a nice size for a "charger plate"
Each plate was hand
thrown and trimmed -
no molds or templates here!
Final Blue Glazing
I had a large rubber stamp made for the inside artwork.
3 Dragonfly buttons adorn each plate.
Dragonflies remind me of the hot & muggy summer days,
Another element from my Louisiana upbringing.
A Close up of the inside.
The words make up the lyrics to an old Cajun Song,
"A Jambalaya, A Crawfish Pie...."
Quite a match for our Louisiana Families
back home in Sulphur, LA and Ragley, LA
