YUN - Deep Maroon
Description
A grounded, earthen warmth. The rich maroon glaze holds the deep, comforting hue of aged terracotta or fine wine, a colour that feels substantial and settled.
This piece belongs in the evening, on a low side table next to a worn armchair. It is a vessel for the late night ritual, where the aroma of calming incense is released into the room.
This deep colour absorbs the day’s anxiety, creating an intimate, soft lit sanctuary for reflection and rest before the day closes.
* Size: Ø100x70H mm

maintenance
Caring for what you own is part of the experience.
Each cleaning, each gentle touch, is a quiet act of continuation.
- Avoid placing the carafe in a microwave, oven, or steamer, high heat may affect the glaze.
- 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
Your living space deserves more than function, it deserves poetry.
This refined form is the result of Master Deng Xiping’s enduring fascination with traditional Eastern incense vessels. The series is her latest interpretation of classic coloured glazes, drawing its architectural poise from the ancient tiered forms of the pagoda.
The upward reaching base and wide, contemplative basin pay homage to the reverence afforded to incense in the East, translating this historical presence into a truly contemporary, minimal aesthetic for the modern home.
The Artisan Behind
In Jingdezhen, Master Deng Xiping continues a lineage once reserved for imperial workshops. Her life in porcelain spans over six decades, from apprentice to national master of coloured glazes, and her hands still carry the rhythm of patience learned in youth.
Working alongside a new generation of women artisans, Deng’s studio redefines what heritage can be. Here, tradition is not repeated but renewed: every brushstroke and glaze firing becomes a dialogue between eras, between the precision of the past and the emotion of the present.
The Roselle Garden series embodies this evolution, porcelain as both memory and movement, a quiet testament to the artistry of women shaping the future of an ancient craft.
