Plates

“Plates” was one of the form-based galleries in the former portfolio. This page contains no specific object information.

Plates as a portfolio category

The page belonged to an older set organized by vessel or object type. Bowls, plates, utensils, and other work each had a separate flat .html route. That structure fits the homepage's description of functional pottery intended for daily use or special occasions, but it does not tell us which pieces appeared here.

The plate illustration gives the page an image-led feel without representing Kristin Pavelka's work. Its colors and decorative rhythm are generic editorial choices. No title, date, glaze, clay body, firing temperature, dimension, collection, or price is attached to it.

What did not survive

There are no documented captions, artist notes, installation views, or sales descriptions. Because the page is sparse, the responsible reference site emphasizes the limits of the evidence. It does not borrow details from the historical resume, from a retailer, or from visual similarities elsewhere on the web.

The homepage connected functional pottery with daily use and special occasions. That broad description suits a plates category, but it does not identify a particular platter, dinner plate, serving dish, glaze, decorative motif, or date. Those details remain unassigned.

The surrounding menu also placed Plates within a wider site of galleries, biographical pages, a statement, and contact. That position identifies it as one branch of the portfolio rather than a shipping, process, or event page.

Pottery Gallery 1 and Pottery Gallery 2 preserve the numbered structure. Gallery documents the later date-based navigation. A public museum collection search offers an example of how documented ceramics can be searched by fields, but this historical page remains a record of URL, title, and portfolio category only.
