Ceramic Dishes For Fysh, Singapore

Sam Gordon’s ‘functional art’ is the canvas for the exquisite dishes in the restaurant Fysh at The Singapore EDITION. His original work crafted off the potter’s wheel, is designed to be used in a restaurant or at home, constructed to be admired aesthetically, while withstanding the rigours of usage. Each piece is made from stoneware and partially covered with fish bone ash white glaze, allowing the natural rawness of the clay to be admired. Fish bones which otherwise would have gone to landfill are sent from Josh Niland’s restaurant to Sam’s studio where they are fired to 1000C degrees amongst the tableware. After this they are calcified, crushed, and added to the glaze as calcium carbonate.
