The Venus Relief Collection
A Study in Pale Stone This collection celebrates the beauty of nuance. Dressed in a creamy, "ivory-on-stone" glaze, it rejects stark whiteness in favor of a warmer, earth-born tone. The surface features a delicate, concave-convex relief—a spiraling texture reminiscent of wind-swept dunes or the fossilized patterns found in limestone.
Tactile Serenity The Venus collection is designed to capture the light. The subtle ridges of the embossed pattern create a soft interplay of highlights and shadows, adding depth to your table without overwhelming the senses. It is a quiet backdrop that allows the colors of your ingredients to take center stage.
Honest Imperfection The edges of each vessel are left deliberately irregular, breaking the rigid symmetry of mass production. Crafted from durable, high-heat stoneware, these pieces possess a grounding weight in the hand. They are built to be heirlooms—resilient enough for daily use, yet soulful enough for your most intimate gatherings.
The Maker’s Note On the glaze variation: The reactive nature of the cream glaze means it settles differently into the relief pattern of each plate. Some areas may appear lighter or deeper, highlighting the "concave" texture. These variations are the intended signature of the kiln.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Washing Instructions
Treat your plates with the same honest care that shaped them. Cleanse on a gentle cycle alongside like colors to maintain the natural patina. We suggest a mild detergent; avoid harsh bleaches or softeners, as they can disturb the tactile integrity of the stone’s surface over time.
Note on Longevity
These pieces are slow-cured and intended to age with grace. With every meal shared, they settle further into your home’s sanctuary. Slight variations in the surface are not flaws—they are the maker's mark, a celebration of the imperfect and the hand-thrown.
Earth, Fire, and Time
This collection begins as raw stoneware clay, rich with iron and minerals. It is shaped by hand, then fired at 1200°C to achieve a stone-like density. The "Speckled Slate" finish is not a print—it is a chemical reaction in the kiln, meaning the pattern on your plate exists nowhere else in the world.
The Quiet Table
Designed for slow mornings and long evenings. The Graphite collection provides a grounded foundation for your daily rituals, turning every meal into a moment of pause
The Vurante Philosophy
Notes on the Collection
Common Enquiries
The Resilience of Stone.
Our stoneware is high-fired to 1200°C, creating a non-porous and chip-resistant surface. It is designed for daily use and is safe for both the dishwasher and microwave.
A Note on Artisan Variation.
Because we use reactive glazes, no two pieces are identical. We celebrate these slight variations as proof of the maker's hand and the honest nature of the kiln.
How do the pieces handle heat?
Born from the 1200°C heat of the kiln, our stoneware is naturally resilient to temperature changes. It holds heat beautifully, ensuring your meal remains warm from the first bite to the last, making it as functional as it is sculptural.
Will the raw base scratch my surfaces?
Each piece is hand-finished with a smooth, diamond-sanded base. While the stone is honest and raw, we ensure the contact points are gentle on your surfaces, though we always recommend a soft linen runner for the most delicate heirloom tables.
Is your stoneware lead-free and non-toxic?
Our philosophy is rooted in earth-born purity. All Vurante glazes are 100% lead-free, cadmium-free, and food-safe. We believe the vessels that nourish you should be as clean as the ingredients they hold
When can I expect my collection?
We honor the time required to pack these pieces securely. Orders typically begin their journey within 48 hours and arrive at your sanctuary in 5-7 business days.
