Add to album

This ceramic plate was made by the artist Dave Cohen in 1984.

The plate, here pictured from above, is made of ceramic black basalt with a lustre glaze in the Raku technique. In the centre is an apple decoration with lustre highlights.

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.
