Bone China – Cake Plate

Artwork: Pikilyi is an important natural spring and water-hole at Mt Doreen Station in the Northern Territory. Pikilyi is the home of two rainbow serpents, a married couple. The wife was a Napananka skin group and the husband a Japangardi, a taboo relationship in the Walpri culture. The serpents are the “kirda’ traditional owners of that country.

This cake plate has a slight concave design. There underside is white and features a sturdy rectangular base. The surface, printed with Aboriginal Art by Theo (Faye) Nangala Hudson, makes it a functional piece of art. It’s a piece that will make a welcome addition to your morning tea.
