the wares
All pieces are hand formed from a creamy white stoneware, using both wheel thrown and handbuilding methods. Once leather hard, Linda carves and etches her unique designs into each individual piece. The colored glazes are applied using brushwork and slip trailing techniques then coated with Linda's durable clear overcoat glaze. All wares go through 2 kiln firings before they are ready for their new homes. All wares are microwave, dishwasher and food safe.

the name
The name Little Flower Designs comes from the little flower that is stamped on each individual piece.
