Handmade Garlic Grater Plate in an Overlapping Blue and White Glaze

This item is a garlic grater, in a navy and white glaze, measuring approximately 10.5cm in diameter. Simply grate your clove of garlic on the ridges in the middle, and either use in your cooking or add olive oil for a yummy dip for your bread.

Each garlic grater is handmade by me in my studio in Cornwall, where I hand carve the ridges and use stoneware clay and food safe glazes. 

‘Trelowen’ means happy place or home in Cornish and it is my hope that this piece brings you a little happiness in your home.

My glazes are inspired by my surroundings. This glaze is a matte navy blue overlapping with a cream satin glaze and is from my 'Morewon’ range.  ‘Morewon’ means seafoam in Cornish, and this glaze is designed to look like the waves off the North Cornwall coast. Matching items are available in this range.

All pieces are individually made by hand in small batches so there may be slight variation and differences in shape, size and glaze from piece to piece.  For me, this is part of the charm of owing hand made and completely unique items. 

 Caring for your pottery:

Looked after properly, your ceramics should last for years – as mine do! But please bear in mind they are ceramics and can break, so please handle your pieces with care to avoid breakages. 

Each item is high-fired stoneware, using food-safe glazes.  Whilst they are dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to extend the lifespan of your piece.  Microwaving is not recommended. 

Packaging:

I NEVER buy new plastic packaging – any bubble wrap used in my postage is having a second life.  Please give it even more life by reusing it yourself.  Any packaging I buy is from recycled materials and is fully recyclable itself (the packing ‘beans’ are made from starch and dissolve in water).
