A softly flowing leaf pattern designed to bring rhythm, movement, and detail to functional pottery.
Pairs beautifully with translucent and breaking glazes.
Scattered Canopy is a full-sized EVA foam texture sheet (380 × 380 mm), created for potters who want surface interest without visual noise. The repeating branches create a natural sense of direction and flow, while the fine laser-engraved texture holds glaze beautifully — pooling, breaking, and catching light in all the right places.
This design works equally well as an all-over texture or as part of a framed composition using Magpie masks and templates. Dense enough to feel intentional, open enough to let form and glaze take the lead.
Best suited for
Dinner plates, serving platters, and large slabs
Trays, wall tiles, and architectural forms
Consistent sets where surface unity matters
Why potters love it
Creates cohesive surfaces across plates, bowls, platters, and slabs
Reads clearly on both flat forms and gentle curves
Fine texture inside the leaves adds depth without overpowering glaze
Excellent peel and clean release in soft clay
Designed as part of a system
Scattered Canopy is sized to work seamlessly with the Magpie Dinnerware System. Use it as a complete surface, or pair it with masks and templates to create borders, reserved centres, or repeated framing across a full dinnerware set.
Start with the texture. Add tools as you grow. Build a system that supports repeatable, thoughtful design.
