Description

Why We Love This

This collection of porcelain nesting bowls can be used in the kitchen, dining room or anywhere else in the home. It’s designed by Kevin Wilcoxson of Wilcoxson Brooklyn Ceramics in the Mingei, or folk art style of Japanese ceramics. Oven-safe, microwave-safe and dishwasher-safe, feel free to use these bowls daily.

Story

Mingei is a Japanese folk art movement developed in the late 1920s and 1930s. Its founding father was Yanagi Soetsu, known for discovering and appreciating the beauty in everyday objects made by unknown craftsmen. These bowls are made special in part by the irregularities of the glazing; the signature overlapping seam and a subtle indentation add to its intuitive shape. Individually built, glazed, fired and signed by the artist, no two pieces of Wilcoxson Brooklyn Ceramics are exactly alike.

About the Maker

He designed his own porcelain molding process to bring together age-old materials with modern forms and functions. Each handmade, individually signed piece has a signature overlapping edge. Food-safe, oven-safe and dishwasher-safe, this practical porcelain tableware can be used daily. No toxic chemicals or dyes are used in his process.
