Dish, by Archie McCall

Add to album

This stoneware dish was made by the Scottish artist Archie McCall in 1986.

The oval dish has a pronounced rim and base, pinched on opposite sides. It is glazed in white, copper-red and blue/greys with a central black motif, in a design inspired by the Scottish landscape.

During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
