Plaques of native flora and fauna were produced for the opening of Ceramic House in 1969. As well as the large size small plaques about 140mm square were produced:

These are also described as teapot stands and the base has raised circles which may have been intended for feet of some sort:

Recently glazed examples of the small plaque/stand have been listed for sale on TradeMe but an unglazed underside suggests that they weren't glazed at Crown Lynn.

I'm not sure whether the glazes are typical of CLP products from the late 1960s. confused

Hemara had about 5 of the small flora and fauna that he showed me.
They are each glazed in a slightly different green colour.
He treasures these pieces.
