Vintage Isle of Wight Pottery Seahorse Plate by Jo Lester | Sgraffito

This charming vintage Isle of Wight pottery plate showcases a beautifully hand-decorated seahorse design by renowned potter Jo Lester. The artist uses the traditional sgraffito technique, carving flowing lines through layered slip to create a lively, textured seahorse that feels full of movement and character. Rich purple tones contrast with green, cream, and blue detailing, giving the piece strong visual impact and coastal charm.

The plate measures approximately 5 inches in diameter, making it ideal as a decorative display piece, a small wall plate, or a collectible example of British studio pottery. Jo Lester’s distinctive style and the Isle of Wight Pottery heritage make this plate a desirable addition for collectors and lovers of handmade ceramics.

This unique piece adds colour, craftsmanship, and seaside inspiration to any interior.
