Platter with Iron Stamping combines the simplicity and grace Warren MacKenzie’s vessels were known for with the gestural expressiveness of the stamped crosshatching lines of the platter’s surface. The iron stamping across the surface contrasts with the glazed stoneware, giving a sketched appearance that is loose and animated. MacKenzie was deeply influenced by Japanese Mingei, a folk art movement that venerated the beauty found in everyday utilitarian objects. The platter’s form does not attempt to mask its handmade origins, distinguishing itself from the regularity of industrially mass-produced ceramics.
