Small Plate Blue Art - Intimate Artistic Elegance

Origin and Composition
High-fired handcrafted ceramics crafted with select Anatolian clays and premium-quality melamine, known for their exceptional purity and age-old durability. Each piece is born from the extraordinary fusion of ancient Turkish ceramic tradition and the inspiration of San Francisco's majestic Muir Woods, creating objects that transcend their function to become tangible stories.

Master Craftsmanship
Created by master ceramists who inherit techniques passed down for over a thousand years through generations of Anatolian artisans. Every stroke, every curve, and every finish reflects the ancestral wisdom where clay is transformed into art under expert hands who master unique ceramic secrets, employing traditional firing methods that guarantee exceptional durability. Our melamine pieces maintain the same artisanal philosophy, offering the beauty of ceramics with contemporary versatility.

Distinctive Watercolor Technique
We apply exclusive watercolor techniques to both ceramic and melamine, requiring absolute mastery. The colors flow naturally, creating unique and unrepeatable gradients, where each piece embraces hues that evoke the serenity of Mediterranean landscapes and the magnificence of ancient forests, adapting these unique designs to both materials.

Collectible Exclusivity
Each collection is produced in limited editions to preserve its unique, handcrafted character. No two pieces are identical, turning your tableware into a personal gallery that evolves with pieces that become more precious over time, reflecting the Mediterranean cultural fusion of Turkish traditions and cosmopolitan inspirations.
