Before drying, the piece is treated with a unique slip—a clay mixture blended with locally sourced earth. After an initial firing, a handmade, matte semi-transparent glaze is applied, followed by a final firing at 1230°C. This process creates a stone-like, dynamic surface that captures the essence of handmade craftsmanship, offering a texture and depth unattainable with factory-made slips and glazes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an architect turned ceramic artist, Gitte Lorentzen is passionate about preserving the natural beauty of clay. Her handcrafted pieces, inspired by Japanese aesthetics, celebrate imperfections and exhibit rough textures, dynamic surfaces, and a vibrant interplay of colors. She experiments with innovative glazes and techniques, such as incorporating locally sourced Danish earthenware as a slip.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gitte Lorentzen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53548302336344,"sku":"GM_Matcha Cup_Local Clay","price":750.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/8188\/8948\/files\/GitteLorentzen_Ceramic_Handmade_Tadaimacph-13.jpg?v=1779437344","url":"https:\/\/checkout.tadaimacph.com\/products\/matcha-cup-local-clay-kopi","provider":"Tadaima ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
