Kanda presents a pair of celadon oil and vinegar cruets on a matching serving plate. This condiment set is carved with gae sa lak, a traditional Thai process used in carving for decorative purposes. Made of ko or rokfa wood ashes enriched with oxides, the glazes distinguish these traditional Thai ceramics. When the kiln is opened, the change of temperature causes the piece to contract, giving it the distinctive crackled appearance of true celadon.

This s truly a striking figurine, and taller than I expected. The cat is so sleek and graceful, and the way it twists its shoulders around (creating shadows on its body!) is done so beautifully that one can sense its lithe muscularity. Just a superb representation of the animal.

What a delightful tiny plate this is. Can elegantly hold mints, toothpicks, etc at a dinner table, or rings at a bedside stand. Or, one can just hold it and admire the expert crafting, delicate color and smooth surface like I do. Makes a great little display gift that demonstrates an ancient technique.
