Story

 

Curated by us as a pair, these cups share the same family of glaze while each develops its own character. Their proportions shift gently from one to the next, inviting every person at the table to find the one that speaks true to them. 

Soft blush tones settle over celadon-green glossy glaze, while the crystallised feet emerge in quiet variations created by the kiln. Together, the cups bring a sense of harmony that none would hold alone.

Gas-fired at 1,280°C

Care

Handle with care. Clean gently with warm water and a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive materials. If used with fresh flowers, empty standing water regularly and allow the interior to dry thoroughly.

Subtle variations in colour, glaze and surface markings are a natural result of the firing process and form part of the character of each piece.
Meet the maker

Wu Jingwen works with raw stoneware, letting iron and wood-ash glazes bring out the clay's natural vitality.

“A thousand things shape a piece before it is finished—temperature, climate, humidity, time, the clay, and the glaze. I am only one factor among them: not someone who commands the material, but someone who discovers what is already there.”
