REBIRTH PLATTER
The Rebirth Platter is a captivating exploration of texture and form. This abstract, modernist ceramic bowl is crafted from black stoneware clay and fired at 1240°C. Finished in hues of metallic, grey, and brown, it is an experiment in volcanic bubble glazing and melted volcano rocks that give it its oceanic crust and aesthetic of raw elegance.
This striking combination of colour and texture makes the Rebirth Platter a statement piece, melding contemporary aesthetics with the rugged beauty of nature.
Athens-based ceramicist Anna Karountzou blends raw elegance with traditional craftsmanship. With a background in the conservation of artworks and antiquities, Anna brings an understanding of materials to moulding and handling clay. With absolute discipline and focus on detail, she creates her own glazes favouring the tactile and functional aspects of the craft. Her one-of-a-kind, hand-thrown pieces draw inspiration from places she feels connected to, and pay homage to the natural world with a contemporary feel.
Inspired by nature, Anna is obsessed with the marks of time, evidently present in the essence of corrosion that her ceramics exude, seeking the nostalgia of the old. Formed by traditional hand-building techniques such as the coiling method, her works are each made by hand, and constitute entirely bespoke pieces where no one is the same. All pots have been fired at a high temperature to ensure their durability.
Lorem ipsum, or lipsum as it is sometimes known, is dummy text used in laying out print, graphic or web designs. The passage is attributed to an unknown typesetter in the 15th century who is thought to have scrambled parts of Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum for use in a type specimen book.

Ceramics with this kind of finish can absorb liquids readily, which will potentially cause staining. In the case that your Rebirth Platter needs a clean, we recommend placing it under running water and gently wiping it dry using a clean, soft cloth.
