The blomus design team's tabletop series not only has typical Japanese shapes that reflect the minimalist design language of everyday objects in the blomus range. It also has a fascinating - but very traditional Japanese - reactive glaze. This effect glaze develops differently with each firing and reacts
to the slightest changes in oxygen in the kiln atmosphere. Nevertheless, the stoneware items are dishwasher and microwave safe. This semi-matte glaze may have inclusions and imperfections, it may get scratches as it is a very soft surface - nevertheless, this is not a detriment, but just a part of this refined manufacturing process. Hence the name Kumi, derived from the Japanese word for eternal beauty.
