Zigzag Bowl / Arata and Atsuko Anzai

A “serrated / zigzag” series—featuring decorative ridges along the rims—often seen in antique Italian ceramics.
Rather than perfectly uniform serrations on every piece, each one has a slightly different rhythm, creating a natural, subtle waviness that only handmade work can achieve.
The forms don’t make too strong a statement: while the outline has a bit of movement, the overall presence is very quiet—held back in a modest, understated way that enhances and elevates your food.
