Description

“Little Flowers”
Found broken small saucer plate combined with hand wet felted wool felt and hand needle felt design. The piece features an elongated piece of felt to give the impression that the piece is dripping or dipped in felt. The felt has been carefully hand needle felted to the base felt and includes gold hand embroidery stitching along the edges. The design on the felt part is not the same as the original plate design, it has been slightly exaggerated to create a new one-off unique art piece. This art piece has been created, designed, and handmade by Alison Hunter.
This wall-mounted art piece is mounted with a D-ring.
The original plate was found in a shed on a friend’s farm, how long it was there I don’t know. It was found broken as is. I like this simple and pretty little plate, the new design is subtle but effective. The red and purple colours are strong. The two different textures make the piece very inviting.
The concept behind these felt plates is changing the function from broken and damaged plates to wall art pieces preserving old memories while creating new ones.
This is a wholly unique piece. Only one of these has been made.

No plate makers mark is visible
