Fire and earth create a unique scene Drawing Plate

Hironobu Ishikawa's Carbonized Plate is a piece that has been slowly fired in charcoal without the use of glaze. During the firing process, the charcoal comes into contact with the surface of the piece, removing oxygen and causing a chemical reaction, resulting in a unique appearance ranging from dark brown to silvery gray to deep ink red.

Traces of fire and earth are engraved into the simple form of a plate, and the tension and serenity of the material itself coexist. Fine particles float on the surface, and depending on the angle of the light, it can take on a metallic luster.

When food or Japanese sweets are placed on it, the texture stands out, adding a touch of elegance to any space, whether Japanese or Western.

"Unadorned beauty" and "the power of white space." The "essence of clay" that Ishikawa pursues is expressed in its purest form through carbonization and firing.
