Awabi Ceramic Plate

The Awabi Ceramic Plate

The Awabi plate is designed through the study of the Awabi clam. Considered the "King of clams" the Awabi shell has a beautiful oval shape with slight curvature, The Awabi bowl reflects the dynamic composure of the shell in a perfectly subtle form. The green pigment reflects the natural appearance of moss. A precisely glazed and hand textured finish makes the Awabi bowl a genuine statement piece.

The Way Of The Wabi.. 

An aspect of Japanese ceramics is the beauty of asymmetry and imperfection. Cracks and flaws are a product of nature and time beyond the will of the human being. In 16th century Japan, the celebrated Japanese tea masters valued the beauty found in imperfect and irregular objects often in their most austere natural state. This led to the unassuming aesthetic ideals of wabi-cha: simplicity, purity, restraint, and humility.
