9 in × 6 in · China · Plum and gold trim

A crescent-shaped Homer Laughlin china dish with plum and gold edging — elegant, versatile, and quietly sculptural. Originally designed as a side or olive plate, it’s since served as a catch-all in my studio: holding paper clips, rings, bits of collage paper, or snacks mid-project.

Its shape feels both practical and poetic — a small gesture of refinement in the middle of chaos. Perfect for olives, rings, or anything deserving a little ceremony.
