Iron Black Matcha Pot + Kintsugi by Popalini & Jezando

Iron Black Matcha Pot + Kintsugi by Popalini & Jezando
Hand Thrown in Devon
Approximate measuements: 8.5cm height x 7cm diameter.

A characterful Matcha pot with a cylindrical form, holding in the hand nicely and a joy to use. Elements of kurinuki forming have been sculpted by way of cuts and carving in the clay with particular flowing effect. Finished with a deep walled lid. Created with care and consideration.

Crafted from Cornish clay with an iron black glaze, that’s been wood fired with soda. The bold, dark iron wash creates a sense of weight and substance to the vessel whilst giving it amazing deep blue and purple rusty tones creating a metallic like surface and soft satin shine.

The lip of the pot has had minor embellishment with a Kintsugi repair using 24 carat gold, creating a beautiful contrast against the dark tones of the surface.

Popalini & Jezando are a collaborative creative force, with a studio on the Devon/Cornwall border, North Devon. Creating functional hand thrown stoneware pieces that are both contemporary yet steeped in ancient traditions of the area.

One off piece. Handwash recommended.
