Antique Yellow Octagonal Petal Rim Ceramic Soup Plate

Ancient Earth, Modern Table

The Antique Yellow Octagonal Petal Rim Soup Plate is a quiet homage to the ancient Chinese ceramic tradition of gu fa — old-method firing — where raw, mineral-rich clay bodies and unrefined glazes are allowed to speak for themselves. The warm, sandy yellow glaze is dense with fine speckle texture, like sun-baked earth or the surface of aged sandstone, while the gently scalloped eight-sided rim adds a classical floral elegance that grounds the piece in centuries of Chinese craft heritage.

• Warm sandy yellow glaze with a dense, fine speckle texture — earthy, tactile, and deeply natural
• Eight-sided scalloped petal rim — a classical Chinese form that adds quiet elegance to a grounded shape
• Raised inner ring separating the wide flat rim from the deep basin — ideal for soups, stews, pasta, or plated mains
• Substantial weight and thickness — the kind of piece that feels serious and considered in the hand
• Food-safe glaze, handcrafted using traditional old-method techniques

For those who believe the best tables are built slowly, with pieces that carry history — the Antique Yellow Octagonal Soup Plate is a piece worth keeping for a lifetime.
