This small ceramic bowl features a stylized magpie spreading its wings across a band of leaves, flowers, and flowing woodland lines. Coral orange and teal accents brighten the black-and-ivory surface, while the solid black lower half gives the flared shape a quieter sense of balance. The bird feels caught in motion, as if it has just lifted from the branches and carried the rhythm of the forest with it.
Every EBMing piece begins with an original design, with the carving, coloring, and finishing all completed by hand. The studio does not copy nature exactly, but reshapes familiar plants and living forms into patterns with their own rhythm and character. Each piece is fired at 1240°C, preserving the depth of the carved lines, the richness of the hand-applied color, and the subtle variations that make every piece slightly different.
