Taking a fresh, modern approach to ceramic dinnerware, the stylish Urban Dinner Plate by Alex Marshall Studios is thin and lightweight, yet durable for everyday use. Hand crafted in a studio on an olive orchard in northern California from a high-fire stoneware clay, every detail was considered to make this piece functional, beautiful and timeless.

Alex Marshall Studios brings to the forefront the unpredictable nature of working with clay by embracing the imperfections made solely by the human hand. Alex’s touch influences every piece; from shaping to firing and glazing, each step is an opportunity to create slight nuances. This makes for products that are as individual as the people using them. Inspired by nature and the spirit of longevity, this collection features a large variety of colors and patterns and versatile shapes that are appropriate for any setting and will last a lifetime.
How It's Made
What makes this pottery line so beautiful is the amount of time that goes into each individual piece. Using clay, each piece of pottery is hand crafted and hand glazed to ensure the highest level of quality and craftsmanship.
Commonly Asked Questions:
-
If I order multiple pieces, will they all look the same?
Each product is completely handmade, and slight variations in color, texture, and size are to be expected and are not considered flaws. These minor irregularities contribute to the overall uniqueness and beauty of the piece! If you plan on ordering large quantities, we recommend ordering them all at the same time to ensure as much consistency as possible. -
Can I see the pottery before I place my order?

How do I care for my pottery?
Each piece is microwave and dishwasher safe and can be warmed in the oven. However, hand washing will always prolong the life of your ceramics. Run through the entire dishwasher cycle including the dry cycle on a warm temperature, and wait to open the dishwasher until it has time to cool. Do not expose to sudden, drastic shifts in temperature (e.g. place into a hot oven from the freezer). Metal marks from silverware (due to the ceramic being harder than the metal) can be removed or lightened with Bar Keeper’s Friend.
