Made with love, passion and care.
For me art is not just creativity, but also mastery and skills of creating. Every time the clay is put on the potter’s wheel, I put a lot of care and attention to what I do.
Every piece I make is my journey to mastery. Every little detail has its meaning and importance, so the final piece is not just nice, but pleasant to the eye and silky smooth to the hand to hold them.
My work is made to be used with a hope they will withstand the test of time.
DESIGN COLLECTIONS
Ice crackle
A glaze with many names: ice crackle, tortoise shell, snowflake and many more.
My main limited-edition signature collection.
Made with thick layer of crackle glaze where the fractures develop the look of cracked ice. Hence also its name – Ice Crackle.
Stardust
When the odds become even during the firing process the iron rich glaze develops beautiful golden microcrystals. Sometimes covering the whole ware with golden hue and other times just few golden sparks like stars.
Glaze that’s originally called “Tea-Dust” and was mainly used in Imperial ware.
