A moment

Frances’s Picks

A few pieces I would not want anyone to miss: minä perhonen and Studio M, a clock no longer made, one-of-a-kind finds from Japan, and glazes that settle differently on each piece.

Shown minä perhonen Tambourine Plates, Small

Most of these are the only one we have: finds from Japan, designs that are no longer made, and a little minä perhonen. When one is gone, it may not come back.

Made in Japan

minä perhonen Tambourine Plates, Small

A small plate with a ring of raised dots: the Tambourine pattern by Akira Minagawa of minä perhonen. 5 cm it is the size you reach for most, for toast, a slice of cake, or the last of the fruit.

minä perhonen Bolo Wall Clock

A small woven forest for the wall. The raised white trees catch the morning light and soften again by evening, so the clock looks a little different through the day.
