Every time I set the table with this plate, the little fish swimming across the dotted aqua glaze make me smile before I even serve dinner. The hand-painted Fayoum style gives it a charm that no mass-produced dishware can match.

The fish look like they’re actually swimming across the plate, and the dotted aqua pattern is so unique—it makes plain dinners feel a bit more special. I’ve washed it a few times already and the hand-painting hasn’t faded at all.

The aqua background is such a cheerful shade, and the dotted pattern makes the fish feel like they’re swimming through a little wave. It’s clearly hand-painted, with each stroke giving the plate a personal touch that brightens up my dinner table.
