Ploopware™ is a revolutionary new product that exists at the intersection of art, nostalgia, sci-fi, whimsy, and beverages. This is a spinoff of Ploopware, and it’s narsty. This piece seeks to celebrate the overdrive, the supermaximum, the limitless, and the overindulgent. These glazes have been pushed to the limit, and then pushed past that. We at heartlessmachine find excitement in going overboard. Yes, that’s a piece of kiln brick.

This lidded jar is handmade in porcelain, trimmed, fired, glazed, then fired again.

It’s rough on the hands, and my wife absolutely hates the way it looks. Maybe this is the kind of thing that is interesting to you. Who knows? If you want it, buy it. If you don’t like it, buy it and give it to your frenemy.

Over time, this piece may show signs of handling or wear. This also is normal and should be celebrated. This is the “sabi” in the wabi-sabi. Embrace it.

This piece is presumed to be food safe on the inside, but is absolutely NOT dishwasher safe or microwave safe. Ultimately, these are fine pieces of art, and extra care should be taken with their use and handling. Be kind to them so they will last a long time and your kids can fight over them when you die.
