A cow planter with rings of red and teal marching across its flanks, a dark glazed interior and a face that looks faintly surprised.

Moo Mood is a herd of cow planters, and this is the one in rust and teal rings. Horns, ears and four small feet were modelled separately and joined by hand, and the face was pressed and pinched rather than moulded, which is exactly why it looks faintly surprised to find itself full of succulents. The rings are nerikomi, laid into the clay before the cow was built. Twenty centimetres long, with a dark glazed well inside.

Nerikomi: the pattern is built through the clay before the piece is formed, and every piece is cut by hand, so no two are identical.

How it is made

The pattern is built into the clay

  • Coloured clays are layered and laminated before the piece is formed, so the pattern runs through the clay
  • Every piece is cut and formed by hand from that clay, so the banding is different on each one
  • A batch takes about two to three weeks, from layering the clay to the final firing

No two are identical.

The story

Faintly surprised, and rightly so

Moo Mood is a herd of cow planters, and this is the one in rust and teal rings. Horns, ears and four small feet were modelled separately and joined by hand, and the face was pressed and pinched rather than moulded, which is exactly why it looks faintly surprised to find itself full of succulents. The rings are nerikomi, laid into the clay before the cow was built. Twenty centimetres long, with a dark glazed well inside.

FAQs

Is it dishwasher or microwave safe?

Our ceramics are microwave safe unless they have metal components attached to them. They are not dishwasher safe, so hand wash them with a soft sponge and mild soap.

Why does my piece look different from the photo?

Each piece is made and finished by hand, so glaze, pattern and shape vary a little from one piece to the next. That variation is part of the handmade process, not a flaw.

How do I stop it cracking?

Avoid sudden changes in temperature and handle it gently. Our journal guide to caring for handmade ceramics covers washing, stains and storage in more detail.

Can I use it for food and drink?

Yes. Our mugs, cups, plates, bowls and serving pieces are made for everyday food and drink. Planters, vases, figurines and hanging pieces are decorative and not meant for food.

What is nerikomi?

Nerikomi is a Japanese technique in which coloured clays are layered, pressed and sliced, so the pattern runs right through the clay rather than being painted on the surface. That is why no two pieces come out exactly alike.

How long does delivery take?

Can I return it?
