This is not a form you see often in the US. In Europe, it's often used for wieners and sauerkraut. I am sure you can put this great divided dish to good use - allowing you to serve side dishes without the fear of them coming together. Wayne hates that, too. This dish, in the Summer Garden pattern, is made by the "Ceramika Artystyczna" or "Artistic Ceramics" pottery in Boleslawiec, Poland. Ceramika Artystyczna's pottery work is some of the finest you will find on the market today. The decorative motifs are applied with a variety of small stamps and handpainting - often with many hundreds of strokes - each a little different - making collecting an art form in itself. Each piece is handled multiple times - from the potter to the painter - and multiple layers and colors. And, these are first-quality - which means they do not have noticeable defects or inconsistencies you might find in inferior polish pottery. This piece carries the pottery's original mark and the paper label applied in Poland. Special white clay is used that is soft when moist, but when fired at 2000+ degrees Fahrenheit, it becomes as hard as stone and non-porous. This intense firing makes it resistant to chips and breakage. It also allows it to retain heat and have even temperature throughout, making it exceptional for baking and serving.
