Description
The Horizon Plate extends upward with quiet grace, its elevated base lifting the form like a landscape rising from still ground. Wide yet poised, it brings a sculptural calm to the table, equally at ease holding fruit, desserts, or a shared dish at the centre of a gathering.
Its gradient of soft earth and ivory recalls the fading light across soil and stone. Balanced between groundedness and air, it transforms dining into ritual, a gesture of stillness within motion, where simplicity meets quiet grandeur.

* Each Horizon Plate is handmade using the ancient yaobian glazing technique, where fire and minerals create natural variations in tone and texture.

maintenance
Caring for what you own is part of the experience.
Each cleaning, each gentle touch, is a quiet act of continuation.
- Dishwasher & microwave safe; gentle cycles are best.
- Avoid metal utensils or rough sponges on the surface.
- After use, rinse and dry softly to preserve the glaze’s depth.
- For light stains, soak briefly with baking soda and warm water.
Inspiration
Objects are not trophies. They are the quiet witnesses to how you live.
In Sichuan’s highlands, the air carries a weight of stillness. Mountains don’t rise suddenly here, they unfold, one behind another, until distance turns them into haze. Somewhere between the soil’s warmth and the mist’s coolness, the horizon becomes more than a line; it becomes a state of mind.
The Horizon Plate was born from that silence. Its shape echoes the slow curve of the land, where earth softens into air, where time feels suspended. This is not a story about ancient dynasties or lost traditions, it’s about the quiet rhythm of nature that has never needed to change.
The Artisan Behind
Nestled in Sichuan’s highlands, Chen Shujun has spent over four decades firing ceramics in a centuries old dragon kiln. Guided by instinct, not instruments, his work embraces time, fire, and imperfection. Each piece carries the quiet strength of a life shaped by the land.
