Night Garden

“Night Garden” – A Handpainted Decorative Plate by Anna Tsetsos 
One-of-a-Kind | Collector’s Ceramic | A Blooming Tapestry of Color and Shadow

Introducing Night Garden, a luminous handpainted ceramic plate by Greek artist Anna Tsetsos, created as an homage to contrast—where color emerges boldly from darkness, and floral life thrives under a starlit canopy.

Set against a deep, matte black background, a bouquet of handpainted flowers explodes in radiant color. Sky blues, sunset oranges, soft lavenders, and snowy whites bloom in perfect symmetry, surrounded by vivid greens and golden accents. The floral arrangement is circular and abundant, echoing traditional embroidery patterns and the hypnotic symmetry of nature’s design.

Around the edge, a border of golden stitch-like details and delicate blossoms creates a feeling of craftsmanship and intimacy—like a lace hem carefully sewn into the fabric of night. There is a folkloric heartbeat here, yet it pulses with modern vibrance.

Anna describes Night Garden as “a celebration of every flower that blooms after dusk. A reminder that beauty often speaks loudest in silence, and light shines most clearly from within darkness.”
