Sushi Plate – Inyo Series #01

This rectangular plate begins as a tall cylinder on the wheel. While the clay is still firm, I cut it open on one side and ease it flat, leaving soft curves that hint at its round beginnings. After glazing with tenmoku and clear glaze and a final high-temperature firing, each plate emerges with subtle variations that make it completely unique.

Why You’ll Love It

This plate is full of presence. The rectangle shape feels modern, while the warm clay and flowing glazes add something earthy and quiet. The clean lines and gentle glaze variations make this plate perfect for sushi, small bites, or a simple breakfast spread. It sits beautifully on a table and works just as well as a display piece. The natural tones pair easily with other Inyo pieces or stand gracefully on their own.

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.
