Paintings you can use! Zeppa's hand painted earthenware oval platters are ready for service or display. They are generously sized at 11 by 17 inches with an inch or so indentation. They are microwave and food safe. For best results, hand wash.

Choose your breed from the menu. (For a complete listing of breeds, click on the PDF file under the photo.) You can also elect a custom platter. Zeppa can paint just about anything, but the limit is 3 animals per item. Zeppa offers three styles of platter…the Original Style with the dogs in the border, Gallery Style with no border (shown at the top), or the platter that says "the chef is not responsible for dog hair in the food!". If you choose the Original Style, then you have your choice of trim color-Solid Black, Solid Hunter, Solid Nautical, Open Black, Open Hunter or Open Nautical…dark dogs show up best on the open trims and light dogs show up best on the solid trims.

These items are made to order; please allow 2-4 weeks for delivery. 4-6 weeks for custom.
