The Pie Dish by artist Simon Leach. A round copper-colored dish with a flat bottom and slightly raised edge, displaying a brown patina with darker brown and lighter brown patches, and small imperfections on the surface and edge. The background fades from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The dish casts a subtle shadow on the surface below.
