Sleek bowls of celadon ceramic reveal a fine crackled network, their pristine contours robed in a jade-like glaze. Celadon is an ancient Chinese technique, practiced in Thailand for ten centuries. Boonsant Photikanond creates these classic bowls, demonstrating absolute mastery of his craft. First dried clay is blended with water in a hand-driven mill and left to age briefly in the open air. Kneaded to remove air bubbles and improve elasticity, the clay is then molded. Once dried, the piece is incised and carved by hand and left to dry for a week. Next it is examined for defects and polished with sand paper. After it is fired for five hours at 1,472�F, the piece is dipped in a glaze made of ko or rokfa (Thai wood) ashes, enriched with iron oxide (for brown) and cobalt oxide (for blue). When dry, it is high fired for 12 hours at 2,282�F and slowly cooled in the kiln for ten more hours. The change of temperature causes the piece to contract, giving it the distinctive crackled appearance of true celadon. Free of lead and toxins, the bowls are safe for dishwasher and microwave oven. Do not use with a broiler.
