SABLO Lidded Sugar Pot by Frederike Martens

SABLO Lidded Sugar Pot by Frederike Martens — A small stoneware sugar bowl with lid that also keeps salt or spices handy by the stove.

Part of SABLO, Frederike Martens’ partly glazed stoneware tableware for the German design house blomus.

The Design Story

A round, lidded pot in the SABLO language: soft edges, smooth glaze and a band of raw clay, made to sit beside the creamer. Martens, born in 1987, trained in Halle, Germany, as an industrial designer focused on glass and ceramics. Her work is about balance: plain, quiet forms, colors picked to last, and materials allowed to show what they are. SABLO was her debut collection for blomus.

The trick of SABLO is what is left bare. A glaze covers only part of each piece, and the rest is speckled clay that feels like fine sand. That is possible because the clay, mixed with quartz, minerals and oxides, is fired hot enough to be dense on its own. Cloud is a soft off-white with a hint of gray, Stone a pale gray with a cool blue cast, and Savannah a warm, deep yellow; on every color the bare band is a sandy beige.

Why You’ll Love It

The lid keeps sugar clean and dry, and the pot is small enough to leave out. Beside the stove it is a handy salt cellar. It pairs perfectly with the SABLO creamer for a matching coffee set.

Made for Real Life

Dishwasher and microwave safe, according to blomus. Glaze and clay react to the kiln, so color and texture vary slightly from one piece to the next. Pairs well with the milk jug, cappuccino cups, tea service.

Why We Love It

Half glaze, half raw clay: every SABLO piece carries a little of the material it was made from. From a small town in Germany’s old steel region, the Blome family has gone from bicycle parts (1921) to metal gifts (1961) to the design label blomus (2000), still family-run in its fourth generation. LoftModern is an authorized blomus retailer.
