Revol Caractère Oval Dish 46.5cm

At 46.5cm, the Caractère Oval Dish is a statement piece: a large-format platter that carries the full weight of Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance's design concept at a scale befitting the centre of any table. The hand-deglazed rim — enamel removed by hand to expose the raw black clay beneath — runs around the full perimeter of the dish, its deliberate irregularity reflecting the balance between the ceramic material and the demands of the production process that Revol describes as central to the collection's character. Every dish is therefore distinct, bearing the marks of the hands that finished it. The bright, luminous quality of White Cumulus is particularly well suited to this scale: the clean white ground throws the dark irregular border into relief, and the contrast gives the dish a graphic clarity that reads well from across the room as well as close up. Made in France from black clay, the dish is as practical as it is considered — dishwasher safe, oven safe, microwave safe, and resistant to mechanical shocks. Revol's porcelain-making heritage, which dates to 1768, is present in every aspect of the piece.
