This set of Woodfired Chrysanthemum Plate and Scoop is unglazed. Its soft markings and nuanced play of color are the result of the unpredictable nature of woodfiring. The fire, ash, and flames leave their signature, making each piece unique.
Chrysanthemum Plate
The Chrysanthemum Tea Boat features a delicate flower shape with 36 petals, inspired by the timeless beauty of Chrysanthemum blooms. It's matte unglazed ceramic. Its wood-fired surface reveals a subtle mix of dark grey, terracotta, and smoky grey tones.

Petal Scoop
A handcrafted ceramic scoop, designed for the tea ceremony to retrieve tea leaves from a bag or storage jar, present them to guests, and gracefully transfer them into teapot. Its smooth surface and organic, slightly asymmetrical shape are inspired by the look and feel of a gently curved petal. Designed to rest comfortably in the palm, it invites touch and interaction—much like a petal carried by the wind before gently coming to rest on the ground.
3.9 x 3.2 x 0.7 in // 10 x 8.5 x 1.8 cm
Only one set was made, shaped and fired as part of a single kiln process. No two pieces are alike, and none can be exactly replicated.
