Ceramist Lola Cera

Description

Handbuilt from a slab of clay by Camille (Lola Cera), this 27 cm diameter plate is fit for everyday feasts.

Camille makes each one in her Montréal studio using stoneware, a robust clay commonly used for dinnerware. After the second firing at 1,222°C (2,232°F), she sands the bottom of each plate to give it a soft feel.

The plate's rounded edges allow for a comfortable grip. It stacks well and is dishwasher and microwave safe.

What is the difference between stoneware, porcelain and earthenware in tableware?

In this article, we outline the differences between porcelain, stoneware, and earthenware, tracing their geological origins and showing how these materials and techniques shape the look and durability of each piece.

How is handmade ceramic made?

Pottery is vibrant with life. Pleasing to the eye and touch, it carries history and human sensitivity. But creating handmade ceramics professionally requires years of experience, aesthetic sensitivity, deep technical skill and a great deal of patience.

What are the different firing techniques?

For thousands of years, people have baked clay objects in ground fire pits to make ceramics, a technique still used today. However, to achieve specific, reproducible results, ceramists use specialized ovens known as kilns which yield more control over temperature and oxygen levels.
