Crackle glaze
Please note that the artisanal nature of Corinium’s crackle glaze can cause minor imperfections, such as the appearance of small air bubbles on the surface. These are completely natural and part of this collection’s unique charm.
The material
It’s made of earthenware, which has a rustic simplicity perfect for decorative dishes. Terracotta and earthenware are the same material. But ‘earthenware’ is used to describe an object that is made on a potter’s wheel, and is glazed, like tableware. Whereas ‘terracotta’ describes an object not made on a potter’s wheel, like a sculpture. And unglazed items like flower pots or roof tiles.
The finish
The side of the Corinium platter is left bare so its rough grey texture contrasts with the rustic, smooth-ish white glaze of the top.
Design details
For a house to feel like a home, it needs things that are purely decorative. Like a picture or a sculpture that will add life and texture to a room. Our ornaments have lots of different finishes, so they look like they’ve been collected over time, and are all part of your unique story.
Design inspiration
Our Corinium collection was inspired by Roman pots and antique English pottery. It was designed to look like pieces you’ve brought home from lots of different places. So some have bare stone edges; some have distressing; some have antiqued crackle glaze. But they all have their own character, and no two pieces will be exactly the same.
