Tadpole pools. 🌿🐸 Stoneware ceramics.

A trinket or jewelry dish. It is also technically food safe - so I'm thinking.. sushi plate? 😋

I'm not a painter but I suspect it's not optimal as a paint palette since the pools aren't white. But whatever is put on it, the toad will be guarding it.

This one is available in my shop at nymla.se/shop💚
