Description
A colour of pure potential, the Ivory glaze is an object of meditative simplicity, reflecting the soft, diffused light of the space it inhabits. This tone is less about imposing colour and more about holding light, offering a clean, open vessel that ensures the complexity of the food remains the absolute focal point. Its smooth, refined surface invites the touch, grounding the senses before a meal.
Placed on a bare wooden surface or a textured linen cloth, this bowl acts as a clean, elegant counterpoint to any surrounding elements. It is an anchor for the quiet contemplation that begins the day, the first simple meal, the moment of clarity, or the intention-setting pause before the world intrudes. The beige embodies the concept of a fresh start, a timeless piece that integrates seamlessly into any evolving domestic landscape.

* Each Lotus Bowl is handmade using the ancient yaobian glazing technique, where fire and minerals create natural variations in tone and texture. No two pieces, even from the same kiln, are ever identical. This individuality is the charm of the craft; those who prefer uniform colour may wish to consider this before ordering.

maintenance
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.
