Watch the glaze run while the kiln is still warm.

Verdigris is an interface language fired in the dark. Every surface hangs from a lit lip and pours downward — bright jade at the rim, pooling tenmoku-dark at the foot — and one kiln-flash mark lands on the rivulet the flame touched.

The signature — the glaze run

Surfaces don't sit. They pour.

A surface is a vertical channel: thin bright glaze at the top lip, deepening as it falls, gathering into a glossy pool at the foot. That pour is the only shadow — there are no borders anywhere in Verdigris.

RUN / 01

Lit lip

Every tile is brightest where the glaze is thinnest — the fired rim at the top. The eye starts high and is carried down.

RUN / 02

The pour

Colour runs downward in a single channel, thinning and darkening, the way real glaze runs on a vessel in the firing.

RUN / 03

Kiln-flash

One rivulet per view catches the flame — a single electric cyan-teal mark on the one rare, live thing worth catching.

Drip index — the navigation primitive

Read the day as rivulets, top to bottom.

Lists, timelines, and navigation are parallel drip columns. Each runs downward from its lit head; the value settles in the pool at the foot. The one column the flame touched glows cyan.

Fired tiles — the material

One material, fully committed.

Jade glaze is the living field, tenmoku-dark is the pool it gathers into, copper iron-flash is the rarest seasonal mark — used once, never spread. A faint craquelure webs the gloss across every surface, evenly, never as decoration piled on.

JADE

The living glaze

The dominant translucent field — bright at the lip, deep in the run.

COPPER

Iron-flash

The third mark, rarest of all. One copper flush where iron broke through — a seasonal accent, never a flood.

CRAQUELURE

The crackle web

A single craquelure system across the gloss — one texture, applied evenly, holding the dark together.

Fire something worth watching run.

Verdigris ships as tokens, fired-tile compositions, a drip-index dashboard, and a full shadcn recipe — dark, glossy, and crackled, never washed pale.
