Press molded plate with leaf pattern

Celadon glaze on smooth white clay (pressed leaf pattern). I 'panic' glazed this - submerging it into the glaze like I was doing the washing. What I should have done is quickly but confidently moved it through the glaze. There is a little puddle of double glaze on the interior of this plate as a result. I'm sticking to bucket-sized pieces to practice glazing and also I've made a large piece to try this technique on flatware again (you don't want to see the bottom of this - it's a mess!)
