Get to know a pinch of salt

A pinch of salt is a constantly evolving project by designer, chef and ceramicist Tamara Pešić, dedicated to ceramics and food — from the objects, tools and vessels we use to prepare, store, serve and enjoy food, to rituals of sharing and being together.

Tamara designs and produces simple and functional ceramics in small series, a collection of subtle and sometimes playful variations of everyday objects. Each piece is made with care and natural materials and is meant to last a long time. She researches the qualities of clay by experimenting with various techniques, from turning on the turntable to handwork to slip casting. Since all products are made by hand, there may be irregularities on the surface, which give each piece its own character and beauty. The contrast between the textures of raw, unpolished and shiny, glazed surfaces is emphasized, allowing the properties of the material to shine through.
