Side Plates Set (2 Pieces)

The Loving collection is created using the historic artisanal techniques of Oaxaca, Mexico. The workshop takes the natural barro negro (black clay) and cleans it by filtering it for 20 days. The clay is then smoked to create the black colour and burnished rather than glazed, by polishing the surface with a quartz crystal until it has a glossy finish with a warm glow. The pieces are then fired in underground pits or kilns, using a wood fire. This creates a tactile finish with a subtle shine. Fitting just as naturally into a rustic farmyard kitchen as in a minimalist apartment, the pieces have a simple form to emphasise the material. The soft, tactile texture is a unique combination between matte and shine. Filling your cup with a tea or coffee brings out the brightness in the material, the light in the dark.

Instructions for use

The cups are burnished to create a beautiful shine and waterproof, food safe finish. Hand wash with hot water, organic soup and a sponge. Due to the items' individual production, there may be small variations from piece to piece.
