wabi sabi style

This collection is shaped from clay sourced from the Sierra Madre mountains in Oaxaca. Local legend holds that the clay is blessed.

Before firing, each piece is meticulously burnished with a curved quartz stone, creating a smooth, reflective surface that gives the clay its subtle sheen. This traditional technique—bruñido—compacts the surface and draws out the natural depth of the material.

The deep, inky tone of Barro Negro is the result of a firing process in which smoke, heat, and a deprivation of oxygen create an intense carbonization effect. Barro Terra, by contrast, undergoes an open-air firing process that retains the clay’s natural earthy color and highlights its warmth.

Created in collaboration with maestro Amando Pedro, our longtime friend and collaborator, in his workshop in San Bartolo Coyotepec, we drew inspiration for the shape from ancient cántaros—the traditional vessels used to transport and store mezcal.

Leadtime 4-6 weeks.
