Naoko Rodgers works in high temperature stoneware, so despite being handmade these are made to be used, not displayed. She describes pottery as the art of chemistry, sitting between what a glaze is meant to do and what it actually does in the kiln, and the variation between plates comes directly out of that.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Biku Living \u0026 Design","offers":[{"title":"26 X 1cm \/ Black","offer_id":42988897861846,"sku":"KURCERDPL","price":78.75,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/4688\/products\/kuro-ceramic-dinner-plate-200294.jpg?v=1685503664"},{"product_id":"asa-a-table-ligne-noire-side-plate","title":"Ligne noire side plate","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Ligne noire side plate is a 22cm fine bone porcelain plate in white, marked with a single black line.
