This half moon platter is formed as a divided, curved surface with a raised circular section set into the arc. The shape allows food or objects to be separated while remaining part of a single piece. The surface shows the marks of making, with glaze pooling and breaking across the form and areas of exposed clay at the edge. The half format makes it practical for shared tables or smaller spaces, sitting neatly alongside other dishes without dominating the setting. It works well for serving snacks, olives, or condiments, or as a display piece where separation and placement are useful.
