Oval Plate 24cm / Sky Blue Glaze

Exploring Wabi-Sabi Aesthetics:

The Sky Blue range showcases Japanese ceramics crafted in Gifu Prefecture, a region known for its rich ceramic heritage. Each piece features a captivating sky blue crackle glaze, highlighting the wabi-sabi philosophy that celebrates imperfections and the beauty of natural elements.

Low-Temperature Firing Technique:

The unique crackle effect results from a specific low-temperature firing process. This technique creates a web of fine lines in the glaze, adding depth and texture to the vibrant blue background.

Organic Shapes Inspired by Nature:

The organic shapes of the Sky Blue collection draw inspiration from the mountainous landscapes of Gifu Prefecture. These forms evoke a sense of tranquility and connection to the natural world.

Practical Beauty for Everyday Use:

The Sky Blue collection offers a balance of beauty and functionality. The vibrant blue glaze adds a touch of personality to your table setting, while the dishwasher-safe design ensures easy cleaning.

The Takai kiln is hard to find, located in an old pottery town behind a maze of small side streets. Taking inspiration from nature and 'wabi sabi' culture, they are renowned for their vivid colours.

Slight irregularities in size, glaze and texture reflect the artisan nature of the product and are embraced.
