{"product_id":"tide-vessel-teal","title":"Vessel | Tide","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe form began as a block of raw plaster, sculpted by hand over many days into the original. The lines are soft and structured, suggesting a torso. From that sculpture, a mould was made. White clay from the Iberian Peninsula is poured into the mould. After demoulding and initial finishing, the small ring handle is placed by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece then rests for three days in a sheltered space, drying slowly and evenly. This step is essential. It prevents tension in the clay as it contracts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA first biscuit firing sets the form. Then a precise mix of turquoise and cobalt is sprayed across the surface, building the gradient and the depth of tone. A final high-temperature firing reveals the blue and the crackled texture that defines the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRooted in a ceramic tradition that has shaped Morocco for centuries. Reinterpreted for the contemporary interior. No painted motifs. No repetition. Each surface is one of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade by a ceramist in Salé who came to the craft through his father’s connection to the old Oulja pottery market. A place that no longer exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite clay, turquoise and cobalt enamel. 28cm H x 26cm W. No two pieces carry the same pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDecorative object. Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth.
