Inspired by Wabi-Sabi, Opale reveals the beauty of imperfection by transforming a potter's flaw, the lime pit, into a vibrant, subtly speckled design in a deep, finely cracked mineral blue.
This new expression from Tourron highlights Jars' expertise in glazes: the development of a unique recipe, intentionally designed to produce this textured effect, stabilized through the mastery of single-firing.
During firing, each component reacts to its own temperature, creating nuances, relief, and depth. The glaze then naturally liquefies, while the dipping motion guides and structures the drips, giving rise to unique vertical marks, the signature of Opale glaze.
