Sushi Plate – Inyo Series #01

Something a little different — this square plate is slab-built by hand, a slower process that gives it a more structured, sculptural feel. The soft ridges add texture, while the glaze — half tenmoku, half clear — flows across the surface like a quiet landscape.

Like everything in the Inyo Series, it’s about contrast: dark and light, smooth and raw, still but full of character.

Use it for sushi, as a small breakfast plate, to hold an incense pebble, or simply as a beautiful object on the shelf.

Why You’ll Love It

This plate is small but full of presence. The square shape feels modern, while the warm clay and flowing glazes add something earthy and quiet. It sits easily on the table but also works beautifully in a display or paired with other Inyo pieces.

Perfect for anyone who enjoys simplicity with a bit of depth

About the Inyo Series

The Inyo Series began as a quiet experiment. I was curious what might happen if I dipped each piece in two different glazes — one dark and rich tenmoku, the other soft and transparent clear glaze. The result reminded me of a landscape: layered, spontaneous, and full of contrast.

“Inyo” is the Japanese word for yin and yang — and this series reflects that idea in both form and finish. Where the two glazes meet, something new and unexpected always appears. Some flows are bold, others gentle — each piece completely unique.

Every item in the series is made slowly and intuitively by hand. The variation in the glazes gives them a sense of quiet movement, and a presence that goes beyond function.

Perfect for anyone who appreciates both the bold and the simple.
