The Story Behind

  • The Color of Night.

    Blue is the hardest color to fire in enamel. If the kiln is too hot, it burns black. If it is too cool, it looks cloudy.

    Master Artisan Ratan uses a specific cobalt oxide pigment to achieve this "Royal Indigo." He applies the wet enamel into the silver cells of the fish's body using a needle-thin brush.

    Once fired, the blue becomes translucent and glossy, contrasting sharply against the gold dividers. It is a technique that turns metal into something that feels liquid.

    Deep waters run still.
