pots (p) / Faye Toogood
A shared history of tea leaf roasting, ceramics, and the intricate and delicate movements of the tea ceremony.
Moments of tranquility crossing continents gave birth to a tangible form.
The "Pots" series, featuring Faye Toogood's iconic curvilinear designs realized through the traditional Japanese wood-firing technique. The lid, reminiscent of a teacup, can be inverted to become a pedestal, allowing it to function as a vessel itself. It possesses a quiet, somewhat Japanese aesthetic within Faye's distinctive object-like designs.
