Harvest Grater | Pre-order

$37.00
Glaze Options:

There’s a little magic in preparing food by hand — the scent of fresh ginger releasing its warmth, garlic finely grated into a dish destined to comfort. The Harvest Grater invites you into that slow, intentional moment, full of care and connection.

The grater surface is left raw and sharp beneath your fingertips, making every use a joy. Carved herb-stripper holes are ready for sprigs of rosemary or thyme. Flip it over, and choose your glaze at checkout — a soft, hand-painted finish that beautifully contrasts with the light, neutral clay body, a bright evolution from the previous red clay. Subtle, elegant, and designed to suit your kitchen’s style.

About the Glaze Palette

At Whistle & Page, glazes are chosen as thoughtfully as the clay itself. The palette is inspired by the natural rhythms of the landscape outside the studio windows — moonlight, blossoms, fresh leaves, wide blue skies, and warm sunshine stretching across the countryside. Each glaze family carries a simple Japanese name that reflects these elements: Tsuki (whites), Sakura (pinks), Midori (greens), Aozora (blues), and Ohisama (yellows). Together they form a gentle landscape on clay, where colours move, pool, and soften in the kiln, ensuring every piece remains beautifully one of a kind.

Handcrafted & One of a Kind

Each Harvest Grater is handmade in my Murrumbateman studio with equal parts intention, clay dust, and a dash of chaos (usually a dog underfoot or someone small asking what happens if you put a cherry pit in the microwave). Handbuilt, shaped, and dried slowly for two weeks, then glazed by hand — satin white or a glaze of your choosing — with natural clay edges for earthy charm.

No two are the same: subtle variations in shape, glaze, and clay reveal their handbuilt soul. Perfect for grating ginger, garlic, zesting citrus, or stripping fresh herbs straight from the garden.

A Slow & Intentional Process

  • Day 1–2: Clay is hand-rolled and shaped, grater teeth carved, and herb-stripper holes placed.

  • Days 3–16: The dish dries slowly for two full weeks, strengthening the clay and settling its form.

  • Days 17–18: Bisque firing transforms the piece into durable, ready-for-action ceramic.

  • Days 19–20: Glazing begins — hand-brushed layers of satin-white or your chosen colour, with the clay edges left exposed for tactile charm.

  • Days 21–22: Glaze firing brings the finish to life, then the dish is sanded smooth and given a gentle soapy bath, ready to grace your kitchen bench.
