This Troyan terracotta dinner plate is from the town of Troyan, Bulgaria. It's made from the region’s distinctive red clay, and hand-glazed in traditional patterns. You'll find these designs on tables across Bulgaria, in restaurants and home kitchens.

The plate has a wavy border and stylised floral design. Shades of mint green and sunshine yellow pop against the brown background.

This dinner plate is part of a collection of Bulgarian pottery. It’s produced in the city of Troyan, which is famous for its ceramics. The vibrant colours and unique designs are an eye-catching alternative to traditional tableware.

The designs are inspired by Slavic and Thracian patterns from the 19th century. Every artist has their own style, so colours and patterns vary from item to item.
