SPRING COMPANIONS
These hand-painted coasters capture the emergence of spring, with pale blue forget-me-nots, creamy blossom and lemon-yellow primroses framing a song thrush, wren and frog. Approximately 8.5cm in diameter, the coasters are designed by artist Lindsay Atkinson from her garden studio in Beverley. The watercolour illustrations are printed onto ceramic transfers, which are then applied by hand to the bone china coaster. They each have a slight rim, so can also be used as a spoon rest. Lindsay draws inspiration from the wildlife in her garden and the nature walks she takes in the east Yorkshire countryside surrounding her home.
