About Tessa Glaze
Tessa glaze is prized for its naturally varied appearance. Because the glaze contains iron, subtle differences in kiln temperature and firing conditions create natural variations in color, texture, and sheen. These characteristics are celebrated in Japanese ceramics as yohen (kiln transformation) and are considered a hallmark of handcrafted pottery rather than a defect.

The result is a finish with depth and character that beautifully enhances food presentation while helping minimize the appearance of utensil marks over time. Combining durability with a refined handcrafted look, Tessa is well suited for everyday restaurant use.
