Kazegama-Fired Porcelain Cup, Celadon Glaze, no. 4

---

Subtle beauty abounds in this kazegama-fired porcelain cup with celadon glazed interior. The sides taper gently to culminate with a delicately-flared lip at the rim. Kiln kisses and drips make each cup one-of-a-kind. So lovely.

Lilith Rockett, an American studio potter living in Portland, Oregon, works primarily in porcelain. Her work, created by hand on the potter's wheel, reveals a deep interest in exploring the qualities of the material: translucency, fluidity, density, and the velvety softness of an unglazed polished surface. Minimal in both form and surface, her work calls attention to subtle nuances of line and shadow, with a delight in the quiet imperfections that characterize the handmade.

In her words: I believe interacting with the handmade enriches us by enhancing our feeling of connectedness. Our interactions with the objects in our lives are part of how we create meaning and personal rituals, like sharing a cup of tea or keeping treasures in a special bowl. These details invite us to the moment, to a presence in the moment, a quiet celebration of the experience of living.
