Crafted in a combination of Sulphur Yellow & Old Rose, two key colours that work beautifully together from the archival BRITISH COLOUR STANDARD Dictionary. Traditionally made Enamelware is incredibly durable, with the colourful ceramic -style 'glazed' coating fired onto the metal piece. This item is gift-boxed in a neat, recyclable kraft card box.

To care for it, try to avoid chipping, do not use abrasive pads/cleaners, and do not place in a microwave or freezer. It's domestic dishwasher safe.
Note: These are handmade items, so slight variations can occur with painted edges etc. When the colour pigment is fired on, sometimes tiny black dots can appear on the item surface; these dots are from the metal wires used to hang the items in the kiln whilst being fired, oxidising. This is an unavoidable part of the manufacturing process and is more noticeable on lighter colours than darker ones, and has always been a part of the alchemy of metal and pigment that is the making of enamelwares.
Made in the United Kingdom
More About the Maker: British Colour Standard was born from a chance discovery — an old colour dictionary found in a London Oxfam shop — and a shared obsession with colour, history, and beautiful objects. Founded by artists and designers Jackie Piper and Victoria Whitbread, the brand revives a colour system first established in 1931 and dormant since the 1950s, bringing its extraordinary archive of historically named colours — inspired by nature, flora, fauna, semi-precious stones, and spices — into a collection of eco-conscious homeware for the 21st century. Their enamelware is part of the Metal Recycles Forever program — recognizing that steel and enamel are infinitely recyclable materials that never lose their properties or quality through the recycling process. Their packaging is recyclable throughout. Colour as history, craft as philosophy, beauty as purpose.
