Ceramic products with story
POvestEa MI
Earth and water, this is how it all began. The Earth is live-giving and when it is worked in any form with the hands, it is timelessly reborn in another shape. In our case, by the power of fire and air.
Each POEMI item and collection has a story. We are inspired by things, experiences and emotions from childhood. The plaster on the walls of the house, the colour of the garden, the passing of seasons which puts its mark on all and everything, the table with the three-legged chairs we used to eat at, the wooden tray where the bread was kneaded, the bowl in which the bread was baked in the oven.
Having such a source of inspiration, our purpose is to create shapes, textures, glazes that inspire both chefs who want to emphasise their dishes as well as people who wish to share the joy of a meal with family and friends.
Materials
All POEMI products are made of stoneware containing chamotte, having different colours and textures, fired at high temperatures, thus becoming resilient and waterproof.
The glazes do not contain lead and are food safe, the most of glazes are organic and are internally developed according to own recipes, the main ingredient being wood ashes.
All POEMI products can be washed in the dishwasher. They can also be used in the microwave, except for those decorated with colloidal gold or copper luster.
In the Earth collection for oven you will find products that can be used for cooking in the oven.
Packaging
Each POEMI product is packed in a kraft box filled with wood wool or special paper. We use chopped cardboard in the transportation box, which is 100% recyclable.
The purpose of POEMI is to minimize the use of plastic in the packaging and transport process.
Wood wool is the oldest and most widely spread method of fluffy packing, very popular in the pottery industry at the beginning of the 19th century.
Wood wool is a light and biodegradable vacuum filling similar to hay, made by cutting wood logs.
