{"product_id":"ash-bloom-n-15","title":"Ash Bloom N.15","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn her latest body of work, Chala Toprak draws from the transformative power of fire and ash through the practice of Anagama firing, a traditional Japanese ceramic technique. The process unfolds over many days of continuous stoking and gradual cooling, requiring patience, presence, and a willingness to surrender to forces beyond control. Within this sustained exchange between material and flame, ash becomes more than residue—it becomes an agent of change, settling unpredictably and initiating a quiet rebirth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the kiln is finally opened, the results reveal the culmination of this elemental collaboration. Ash returns as surface, glaze, and mark, honoring each vessel with a singular imprint shaped by time and fire. In these works, Toprak celebrates transformation not as an end point, but as a passage—where intensity gives way to beauty, and material finds its renewed life through process.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chala Toprak","offers":[{"title":"7.0 x 9.5 inches | Original Work \/ N\/A","offer_id":44514100609206,"sku":"CT_ABN_SCULPTURE_7.0_X_9.5__A358_A24229","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/7736\/files\/ash-bloom-bowl-n15.jpg?v=1769119271","url":"https:\/\/www.tappancollective.com\/products\/ash-bloom-n-15","provider":"Tappan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
