Oyster — Glazed inside and out — the clay disappears beneath a satin grey.
Glazed inside and out — the clay vanishes beneath a satin grey, no two alike in the light.
Five pieces: two plates, a bowl, a cup, and the only mug in the range. Each is dipped by hand, so the grey settles heavier down one side — a drift that is never quite even, and never corrected.
The idea
One glaze poured over everything, inside and out. The clay disappears under a satin grey, and the form is left to do the talking.

One glaze, poured over everything.
Oyster began as a single glaze test we couldn’t put down — a satin grey sitting somewhere between stone and cloud, different on every form we dipped in it. So we stopped trying to make it even. Poured over the whole piece, inside and out, it lets the shape do the talking and the clay disappear, which is exactly the table we wanted to set.
The surface
A satin grey, pooling a shade deeper where the wall turns and along the foot. Smooth throughout — no surface left raw. It reads almost matte until the light moves across it, then lifts to a low sheen and settles again as you turn it in the hand.
Why no two match
Hand-dipped, so the glaze settles a shade thicker to one side — read across a plate as a faint drift of grey.
In use
Living with it
Dishwasher, microwave and a warm oven — all fine. Just no jump from cold straight to real heat, or the glaze can craze.

The other answer — Sand.
Glazed only where food meets the piece. Everywhere else, bare stoneware.
