Large Nesting Bowl Set - Black

Rachel Green

Entranced by throwing clay on the potter's wheel and honing the chemical complexities of the materials she works with, the work of ceramicist Rachel Green is considered down to every detail.

Made in small batches, her practice reflects a consideration of each piece's place in our homes and hands, ensuring its shape is well thought out and functions well. Not only is Green's work designed for durability in everyday use, but with the employment of meticulously custom-formulated glazes, each piece is also wholly unique and spirited on its surface. The resulting work is beautifully subdued, evoking memories of coastlines and tumbled river stones.

Now based in Portland, Oregon, Rachel splits her time between her home studio and wood-firing work deep in the woods of Willamina.

Ceramic pieces can be unglazed, partially glazed, or fully glazed. Each application requires a slightly different approach to caring for the piece.

While most ceramics are dishwasher-safe, we recommend handwashing to maximize the piece's longevity.

It is best to wash after each use. Lukewarm water and a mild detergent will do, but for a hardier stain, you can use gentle cleansing products like Bon Ami.

For woodfired work, if you regularly clean your piece with harsh soaps or in the dishwasher, it might start to look visibly dry. In this case, apply a small amount of mineral oil to your hands and rub the surface of the piece to regain its luster.

The porosity of unglazed clay bodies can retain large amounts of moisture and harbor bacteria. Avoid soaking the piece in water for extended periods, as this can lead to discoloration, odor, and mold growth.

Most hand-thrown ceramic wares are left with an unglazed foot. If rough to the touch, use 220-grit sandpaper to polish until smooth.

Refrain from sliding the piece across surfaces to help avoid scratches on furniture.

Wipe the piece with a soft cloth after washing, and dry on a dish rack overnight before storing.
