{"product_id":"cream-cat-ceramic-dishes","title":"Cream Cat Ceramic Dishes","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCat shaped ceramic dishes in calico and ginger, from a 6 cm dip dish to a 150 ml bowl\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese cream cat ceramic dishes are small hand-painted ceramic pieces shaped like a sitting cat, a lying cat or a cat's head with two ears. You pick a shape and a colour: calico is cream with grey and ginger patches, ginger is butter yellow with soft green stripes. Buy one for the tea table or build a set a piece at a time. They all come from the same maker, so the glaze and colours match across shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey're for the things at a tea table that always need a dish and never have one: a few dried longans, or the wet end of a tea scoop. The mini ones hold about 30 ml, enough for soy sauce or a pinch of salt. The plates and bowls take a proper serving of nuts or a small dessert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe glaze has a speckled, slightly pebbled surface you can feel with a thumb, and the patches are painted under the glaze so they won't wear off. Ears are a little uneven from piece to piece, which is part of why we like them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eShapes and sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMini dish\u003c\/strong\u003e (cat head): 6 × 6 × 2.5 cm, about 30 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLying cat dish:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.7 × 5.5 × 2.3 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCat plate\u003c\/strong\u003e (sitting cat): 12 × 8.8 × 2.6 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCat-head bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.5 × 9.5 × 4.5 cm, about 120 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRound bowl\u003c\/strong\u003e (sitting cat, deeper): 11.5 × 10.6 × 4.6 cm, about 150 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e glazed ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDecoration:\u003c\/strong\u003e hand-painted underglaze colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours:\u003c\/strong\u003e calico (cream, grey, ginger) or ginger (butter yellow, green stripes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e speckled textured glaze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold:\u003c\/strong\u003e individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThis works well for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTea snacks at a gongfu table, dried fruit or a small sweet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA dip or sauce dish beside dumplings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA rest for a tea scoop, tongs or a tea pet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA small gift that fits in a pocket, for anyone with a cat at home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're in Hobart, the whole family is out on the counter at our Salamanca Tea Bar.
