{"product_id":"terracotta-saucer-black-glazed-clay-cup-plate","title":"Terracotta Saucer — Black Glazed Clay Cup Plate","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA saucer’s job sounds simple — catch drips, hold a cup steady — but a well-made one does more than that, and this piece is designed as a genuine companion rather than an afterthought accessory. Built from the same natural clay as our matching terracotta coffee cup and finished with the identical food-safe black glaze on the interior, it’s meant to pair rather than just coexist on a shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA slightly raised inner ring keeps the cup from sliding around, while the flat outer rim adds enough visual weight that the saucer reads as substantial rather than flimsy. Inside, the smooth black glaze wipes clean in seconds — genuinely practical for daily use — while the exterior stays completely unglazed, the same warm burnt-orange terracotta as the cup it’s built to sit under, so the pairing looks intentional rather than mismatched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAt five inches across and an inch tall, the proportions suit an espresso or small coffee cup specifically, though the saucer holds up fine as a standalone small plate too — biscuits, a few pieces of dry fruit, a small snack that doesn’t need a full dinner plate. That dual function matters for anyone who wants tableware that earns its cupboard space rather than sitting unused between specific occasions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFood-safe glaze, natural clay base, and a level of finish that makes it a strong addition to a gift set built around the matching cup — the kind of small detail that signals someone put actual thought into the pairing rather than grabbing two unrelated pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaterial\u003c\/b\u003e — Natural terracotta clay, hand-formed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eInterior\u003c\/b\u003e — Food-safe black glaze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eExterior\u003c\/b\u003e — Natural unglazed terracotta base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eGood for\u003c\/b\u003e — Pairing with terracotta coffee cup, snack plate, gifting as a set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ci\u003eA saucer that actually matches, because it was actually made to.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soul Of Soil","offers":[{"title":"2","offer_id":50704220324087,"sku":"SOS-027","price":58.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/2968\/7799\/files\/IMG_4147.jpg?v=1777224957","url":"https:\/\/www.soulofsoil.art\/en-nz\/products\/terracotta-saucer-black-glazed-clay-cup-plate","provider":"Soul Of Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
