Sometimes these dishes have little cracks in the underside, these aren't through and through and don't influence durability. Made with clay slabs and the help of a mold. Underglazes are applied on the surface and after the first firing the glaze was applied and the dish was fired for the second time. After that, the gold was applied and the dish was fired the last time at a lower temperature.
Material:
Made of red earthenware clay. This clay is my favorite because of the vivid tones it creates. The underglaze is developed by testing and adjusting several recipes to make one that is durable used in combination with this clay.
The glaze, which I developed for this clay, is lead free and foodsafe.
The coating on the unglazed parts makes the plates water and oil resistant and it can easily be cleaned.
I try to be as environmental-friendly in my production process as possible. That's why I use clay that can be fired at a a relatively low temperature. In addition the coating often makes it possible to load the kiln with more works at once.
This item will last the longest if you clean it immediately after use and do not use aggressive cleaning agents.
You can clean it with water and dish soap.
Please handwash.
Not suitable for oven or microwave.
All my works are completely handmade
The complete making process is in my hands and a lot of the used materials and techniques are my own recipes and techniques.
Imperfections enhance the unique character of the object.
