Lotus Bowl - Forest Green
Description
The Forest Green glaze is a deep, mutable emerald that holds the quiet intensity of a shaded pond in summer. The subtle, organic wave of the rim is an invitation to pause, transforming the act of eating into a measured, sensory experience. Whether cradling a warm, morning porridge or a light, evening salad, the bowl's form elevates the contents, presenting a small tableau for contemplation.
To serve with the Lotus Bowl is to embrace the philosophy of slow nourishment. The Main size is perfectly weighted for personal daily use, while the Grand anchors a communal gathering, offering a generous, central presence on the table. In use, the rich colour grounds the eye, recalling the enduring, peaceful stability of the natural world, allowing the textures and flavours of the food to be fully appreciated. This is an object that finds its rhythm in the home not through display, but through daily, mindful engagement.

Caring for what you own is part of the experience.
Each cleaning, each gentle touch, is a quiet act of continuation.

- 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.
