Wabi Plat Ovale, Large (Oval Serving Platter)
Embrace the serene elegance of imperfection with the Wabi Plat Ovale, an oval French ceramic platter that unites Jars Céramistes’ 160-year heritage with Japanese wabi-sabi philosophy. Handcrafted in our Drôme atelier from high-fired, non-toxic stoneware, its gently asymmetrical oval silhouette—evident in the plate’s organic, hand-chiseled rim—reveals the raw, textured clay beneath layered ash glazes. Each brushstroke and ladle application yields subtle shifts in hue and fine crackling, where deep inky edges wash into a softly speckled interior, celebrating the “ballet of gestures” at the heart of Jars artisanship. Artfully designed for ease of daily indulgence, the Wabi Plat Ovale is both dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe, featuring a dense, water-resistant surface ideally suited for presenting sushi, charcuterie, or family-style entrées. Sustainably produced with lead- and cadmium-free ash glazes and a single-firing, energy-saving kiln process, it exemplifies Jars’ eco-responsible ethos. Perfect for quiet suppers or convivial gatherings, this stoneware oval platter invites you to celebrate imperfection—where raw materials, ash-kissed finishes, and centuries-old French savoir-faire converge to create a truly unique tablescape essential.
