Color Shade Variations
Each piece has individual color shade variations. Affected by glazes and natural firing conditions such as changes in temperature, humidity and other climate elements and also how to receive the fire in the kiln chamber, each piece has own expression. It is really difficult to make the completed ware exactly same in color by firing and glazing even when the same materials are used. 100 pieces show 100 kinds of expressions, as it were.
Color Irregularities
There are color irregularities of applying a glaze or slip, which are different from part to part in a piece of ware. For example, some parts are glazed thinly or thickly depending on the shape of the ware. That leads to part-to-part subtle differences in appearance of the clay in a piece of ware.
Glaze or Slip Drips
The glaze or slip may look like dripping. There is unevenness of a glaze or slip when they are applied to ware by hand. There also appear glaze drips or slip drips, which are caused by the glaze or slip flows during firing.
Rough Clay
The surface may be rough due to the use of rough or coarse clay.
Pinholes
Pinholes may be seen clearly on the surface. Pottery (earthenware) is mainly made from earth, and green ware contains a lot of air while biscuit firing. While glazed firing, this air inside the biscuit ware becomes air bubbles, which remain and look like small holes on the surface of the glazed part. Those small holes are called pinholes.
Crazing (Chaps)
Crazing (having chaps) may appear clearly on the glazed part. The “direct” crazing means having chaps originally. The “aging” crazing means having chaps over time as you use the tableware item. There is a difference between the shrinkage rate of the glaze and that of the clay, so crazing occurs. Note that those cracks do not come from the damage of tableware items. They might appear just before use, but it is no problem in terms of use. They appear on the surface of pottery (earthenware) and semi-porcelain.
Iron in Powder
Iron in powder may be seen clearly on the surface. Pottery (earthenware) is made from earth, which contains iron. After firing green ware, iron appears on the surface in the form of black dots. Red or black earthen clay contains much more iron, and as a result, not a little iron in powder may appear on the surface of tableware items made from this type of clay.
Microwave Safe
A microwave oven heats or cooks food very quickly using short electromagnetic waves, namely, microwaves. In most cases, the microwaves heat the water content of the food. However, in some cases, the microwaves concentrate on the carbonized (burnt) parts of the food, causing the temperature to rise higher than the other parts. For example, the microwaves concentrated on the carbonized (burnt) parts of stir-fried vegetables can create a large temperature difference in /on the tableware item, which may cause breakage. In addition to water content, oil content is also heated. The oil has a higher boiling point than the water, so it heats up at a higher temperature, creating a very large temperature difference between the parts that contain oil and the parts that do not, which can cause breakage.
・Never soak hot tableware in water or place it on the cold kitchen counter. Avoid rapidly heating frozen foods or putting [the cold tableware just taken out of the refrigerator] in the microwave. A rapid change in temperature will lead to “crazing” (chaps) or breakage.
※The products with gold or silver paintings, or applied with particular glazes are not microwave safe. We put a “Do Not Microwave” sticker on those items, so please confirm it.
※Accessories etc., made of other materials are excluded from microwave safe items.
Not Oven Safe
Dishwasher Safe
As for the products without the "Not Dishwasher Safe" stickers, please make sure to use them keeping the below matters in mind.
※If tableware items collide each other in the dishwasher, they will get broken.
※Most ceramic items absorb water. Even if the surface looks dry, there may still be some water in the tableware, which may cause your tableware to get moldy or smelly. So, please take it out of the dishwasher immediately after use, and dry thoroughly in a place where it can be exposed to the outside air.

赤土と透明感のある瑞々しい釉から生まれる豊かな風合い。
丼や麺など銘々の器としても、サラダ、惣菜の盛り鉢にも使えるサイズ。
そして盛り映えする形。
料理を生き生きとみせ、深い飴色と瑠璃色がテーブルをぐっと引き締めます。
【企画のこだわり1】風合い豊かな土と釉薬
赤土と瑞々しい透明感のある色釉から生まれる、風合い豊かな表情。
その景色は一つひとつ異なり、器の個性となっています。
手作業でかけた釉薬は部分ごとに厚みが異なり、
そして高温の窯の中で溶け出し、流れを作り出す。
その両方が合わさることで、複雑な色の濃淡が表れます。
また貫入とよばれる釉薬の細かなひびや、縁や釉の薄い部分にでる焦げ目など
土ものならでは深い味わいがよくでた器に仕上げました。
グルマンの表面をなでると土の質感や荒土の粒の凹凸を感じます。
今回つかった赤土は、いくつかの種類を窯屋さんがブレンドしてつくった土。
上にかける釉薬との相性と表現したい土の質感、粒感のバランスを考慮して、
調整したオリジナルです。
土に含まれた成分の影響で、釉薬はより表情が豊かになり、
ブレンドした土の粒は器の表面や縁にあらわれ、土ものらしい魅力を放ちます。
季節、温度や湿度、窯の中の置かれた場所、釉薬のかかり方等、様々な条件が合わさることで、
ひとつとして同じものがない、それぞれ個性を持った器に焼き上がります。
私たちも今回はどんな焼き上がりかな、と窯屋さんから器が届くのを楽しみにしています。
【企画のこだわり2】大きさと形
土と釉の風合いを最大限に生かすため、形状はたっぷり大らかに仕上げました。
そしてサイズはデザインを担当した企画(小)が、
自宅で実際に使っていて使いやすい器のサイズを参考に決めました。
グルマンのこの大きさはどんぶりとしては小ぶりですが、
例えば銘々で汁なしのうどんやチリコンカン風の丼もの、一皿で満足できるカリカリに焼いたパンを入れたサラダなどに使いやすいサイズ。
盛り鉢としては、煮物や漬け物、野菜のソテーなど。
ぱっと見は和食が似合いそうな雰囲気ですが、こういった表情豊かな陶器にあえて洋風のお料理を盛りつけると
一気におしゃれ度が増すのでおすすめです。
縁が外に少し反った形状は、器に広がりを与え、
盛りつけた料理をよりきれいに見せます。
盛り面が小さくゆるやかなカーブを描いているので、中央に料理をのせるだけでバランスが取りやすく、盛りつけしやすいです。
個人的にはグルマンを夜食を食べる時につかいたいな、と思っています。
小ぶりなサイズで量が多くなりすぎないので、食べ過ぎずにすみそう。
ちなみにこの記事の2枚目の写真の中華麺は通常の一人前よりすこし少ない分量です。
あとはおかゆとかお茶漬け、具だくさんのスープにもつかいたいです。
グルマンはスタジオエムの中でも特に風合い豊かな器のひとつ。
ぜひその本格的な風合いを食卓に取り入れてみませんか。
