the black rabbit

image descriptions: a black ceramic rabbit with pink antlers and a white, eyeless face. Sharp triangle and spiral designs coil over it. The pink covering of its antlers is cracked; the same cracked pink pigment forms a mask over where the rabbit's eyes should be.

I just love the delicate little crackles in my crackle glazes. Each die is compleatly unique, like a fingerprint. 🥰

As the die cools in the kiln, the glass contracts more than the clay body, causing it to have this effect. 😮

Restock Nov 7 at 6pm ET

🔥 Can a Plate Take You on a Journey? Oh Yes, and Here's Why! 🔥

I was just sitting down for a casual meal, minding my own business, when bam!—I noticed this gorgeous plate in front of me, and let me tell you, it wasn't just any plate. The intricate patterns, the vibrant colors—they instantly transported me back to one of the most mesmerizing artistic traditions in history: Islamic art. 🎨✨

Here’s the cool part: Islamic art is way more than just pretty designs.

Back in the day, Muslim artists weren’t allowed to depict people or animals in religious art, so what did they do? They went ahead and invented a whole new art form! 💡 They turned geometric shapes, flowers, and repeating patterns into something breathtaking. Every swirl and line you see? It’s full of meaning, symbolizing balance, unity, and the infinite beauty of the universe. 🌌✨

🌍 Imagine standing in the Alhambra in Spain or the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, completely surrounded by these patterns. It's like being wrapped in centuries of culture and beauty. And here’s a fun fact: Muslim mathematicians like Al-Khwarizmi (yes, the guy behind algorithms!) actually helped make these designs possible. Talk about a blend of art and science! 🤯

Now, here's the kicker. Sitting in front of me was this plate—yes, a simple plate—but I realized it’s a direct descendant of that incredible legacy! Islamic art didn’t just stay in palaces or mosques, it found its way into everyday life—on pottery, textiles, and yes, even the plates we eat from! 🍽️💫

So next time you're sitting down to a meal, take a second look at what’s in front of you. You might just discover a piece of history, a story that’s still unfolding centuries later. Trust me, it’s everywhere, if you just know where to look. ❤️
