Matte Glazed Dish
Description
Founded in 1962 in the Coyoacán quarter of Mexico City, the ceramics studio of Alberto Diaz de Cossio has been a hub of creativity since its founding. Although Alberto Diaz de Cossio passed away in 2022, his students and protegés carry on the traditional pottery forms his studio is known for, while also creating their own work. The resulting pieces can be said to be created by the collective. We are proud to bring to Reed Smythe organic vessels in a moody matte blue that is the color of the Mexican sky. This is only one of the many glazes offered by the collective, where many potters work and teach and sell their wares. Alberto, beloved by his family and students, lived to be 87 and worked continually until his death. He says of his métier: "I've been a ceramist for (fifty-seven) years. During this time, I've developed in three areas: teaching, production, and artistic expression. I've always had a passion for creating my own clays and glazes, as well as my own equipment and tools. I believe ceramics is the art of arts, the most complete form of expression".
