Let the food tell a story
An oven-baked dish of potato and egg.
Carrot around the egg represents the twigs of a nest.
Open the bird-shaped container to find an egg inside.
Eating the egg guarded by the parent bird makes this a slightly unsettling little story.
Its storybook charm, reminiscent of fairy tales and Mother Goose rhymes, brings extra enjoyment to the table.
Mulet
Mulet means “cloudy sky” in Swedish. The name is reflected in the subtle shades of white and grey.
Small irregularities in shape and variations in the glaze bring warmth to Mulet’s muted colours. Each piece carries traces of the hand that made it. The quiet finish frames the food and sits comfortably with wood, metal and glass.
Mulet begins with a specially developed clay body. The makers blend clay rich in cobalt and iron with the coarse clay traditionally used in Shigaraki ware. Around 20% porcelain material is added to strengthen the dark clay body. Many trials with an original milky-white glaze led to the collection’s distinctive colour.
In the workshop set up in Gifu to make this collection, the clay is mixed and kneaded, then fired at 1,250°C. Firing at this high temperature produces thin, strong pieces that can go in the microwave and dishwasher.
Mulet comes in three designs, Relief, Line and Hand.
Choose the decorative plant motifs of Relief, the simple rim of Line, or Hand, which follows the original form thrown on the wheel by the designer.
