Kiln Blue is a recent addition to Denby’s Kiln portfolio. Inspired by the colours and textures found in the natural world, Kiln Blue is a combination of glazing techniques unique to Denby which create an effect resembling sea waves.
Designed to sit comfortably with other inky blue ceramics or alone as capsule items, Kiln Blue’s pieces are restrained and uncomplicated. The soft white toned glaze and gentle inky blue stipples along with the dramatic reactive glaze effect which pools on the serving pieces are stunning pieces of art. The now iconic Denby hand-dipped glaze effect is used on the taller items and creates the layers of colours and texture found in the depths of a wave.
Pattern Design Manager, Nicola Wilson explains her inspiration behind the design: “Kiln Blue follows Kiln and Kiln Green in being inspired by the colours and textures found in the natural world. Code named ‘Seascapes’, Kiln Blue is a response to the qualities of flowing water. The two glazes used in the collection echo the movement and multi-faceted tones of the sea’s waves as they combine.”
Place setting items are available as single-items or as part of a boxed set option for gifting, all in recyclable packaging. In addition to tableware pieces there are gift boxed home fragrance pieces, vases and accessories such as glassware and seagrass placemats. Intended to be used and enjoyed every day, Kiln Blue is dishwasher, microwave, freezer and oven safe and made to Denby’s awarding winning ethical and sustainability criteria.
