On Sale / Black granite and white matte glaze plate medium

*We are selling this product at a sale price to clear out our inventory. Please take advantage of this opportunity. Black granite clay has the rough texture characteristic of ceramic clay and a chic black color. A white matte glaze that produces a soft white color with a slight yellowish tint. This uniquely shaped plate was created by combining these two elements. Normally, when making plates, flat, rolled-out clay called tatara is used, but these are made by pulling the clay into a cylindrical shape on a potter's wheel. Hand marks called rokuromegoku appear on the surface, giving the piece a different feel from plates beautifully crafted using the tatara method. These vessels were created while enjoying the coincidences that appeared at each moment. As a plate for Japanese sweets. Serve with cheese and wine. Serve a few appetizers. As it is a wooden plate, it cannot be used to serve liquidy dishes, but we hope you will enjoy using it to serve a variety of ingredients, both Japanese and Western, and to match the atmosphere and colors. I have a small electric kiln at home and do all the steps by hand, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing and firing. Although they lack the uniformity of mass-produced items, they are one-of-a-kind pieces that allow you to enjoy the flavor that can only come from something made by hand. The item you receive will be the same as the product image. There may be some wobbling, so the bottom will be polished with a whetstone before delivery. We will polish the table to eliminate any wobble as much as possible and without damaging it, but please be aware that some wobble may remain. If this bothers you, we recommend placing a kitchen cloth or similar underneath the product to further reduce rattling. Using a variety of glazes and clays, I create a wide range of pottery in a variety of colors and shapes, searching for the best combinations. It is impossible to create two identical pieces, so although they may look similar, each piece is unique. I would be very happy if you could find your favorite. We hope that the colors of the glaze and the warm atmosphere unique to pottery will add color to your dining table. --- *Size and weight* Width 19.5cm Depth 10cm Height 3.5cm Weight: 479g --- *Precautions for purchase and use - Due to its nature, pottery is absorbent, and in some cases color may stain the crazing or moisture may seep out.
