About the Item

Oaxacan plates handmade tableware burnished barro negro de Oaxaca. The Loving collection* Wild clay from the mountains of Oaxaca becomes a polished matt piece for the contemporary home. The clay has been collected by hand using rustic tools from the region of Oaxaca. It is then filtered for 30 days to create a very soft and clean clay. It is known as wild clay because it has not been mixed with any artificial powders or colours. The Loving collection pieces are fired with firewood in a brick oven, without use of oil, gas or electricity. The black colour of the pieces is natural and it is given by a technique of oxygen reduction from blocking the exit of the smoke during the fire by covering the oven from the outside with clay and mud. For the pale collection, the oven is not fully enclosed during firing so the smoke goes out easily and the terracotta colour is the naked form of the clay. Before the fire the pieces are burnished, an ancient technique of polishing the pieces with a hard stone or a metallic soft tool. This process closes the pores of the clay making it watertight and creates a unique shine and soft texture without any glaze added. Every production batch is small, unique through the combination of materials, fire and weather conditions. The beauty of these pieces is in the way of production and there is not perfection in the exact same shape or colour. Even the way they age is equivalent to a wooden chopping board or a cotton blanket getting softer. Important Care and Info When you first receive the pieces, wash them with tap-hot water. With the cups, keep the water in them for a few minutes. It should be noted that with use they will become permanently stained if any foods with oil or color are put on them which is part of the unique magic of the natural background of its production, this characteristic is what makes that world known restaurants use them in their menu as you can not get this effect with any other industrial type of production.
