Espressosets with a small water glass: The small cup is hand thrown in white porcelain, the oval plate is cast, also in white porcelain. Finally I am working on these sets again and I know, I am late: Sorry and thank you for the patience – they are available in June, some are already reserved. #ceramic #porcelain #cast #white #set #series #coffee #espresso #zurich #switzerland #pottery #clay #handmade #home #styling #makersgonnamake #craft #fineart #fine #delicate #simple #minimalism #elegant #architecture #coffeetime #italy #beautiful #cup #drink #glass Likes: [igp-likes]... 06 April, 2018
In 2008 – ten years ago – I made another tableware collection in stoneware, all pieces hand thrown and coated with black glazes: I created a matte one and a glossy one, iron glazes that I still use. The tableware collection consisted of plates, cups, beakers and bowls and also some vases because I love a table wirh flowers on it. I made a new shape for the plates and used the red thread in the cups – the intention was, that one can combine the new collection with the older one from 2008. And: It works, I am still using both collection together. Slide through the pictures to see a table with the dishes and flowers. Happy Sunday to everybody! #table #ceramics #pottery #tableware #interiordesign #flowers #black #eat #nature #food #photography #zen #zurich #switzerland #japan #minimalism #simple #wood #architecture #style #elegant #handmade #craft #beautiful Likes: [igp-likes]... 18 März, 2018
Lonely coffee cup…. it is the very last one of uncountable ones that I made in the last fifteen years. All were hand thrown and coated with a matte black glaze and I made the red thread on the rim. I will not make them again – so maybe I will take this one for me and my memories. #ceramics #black #handmade #pottery #craft #lonely #memories #series #past #artwork #tableware #projects #red #zen #zurich #switzerland #hongkong #beautiful #home #interiordesign #architecture #cup #plate #newyork #photo #drink #coffee #tea Likes: [igp-likes]... 14 März, 2018
Brilliant team! One of my black porcelain teabowls with a black thread together with a pair of wonderful earrings from my friend and master jeweler @regula_kilchsperger – we are both working in our own studios and they are close to each other in Zurich‘s university district. Sometimes we meet for coffee or tea and sometimes we work together like for our exhibition last December, and sometimes we arrange our work together – like here on this picture! It is great to meet somebody with a similar craft philosophy and with a similar claim to quality. #ceramics #jewelry #porcelain #black #tea #violet #purple #details #craft #gold #earrings #beautiful #gems #tealover #together #friends #master #zurich #switzerland #exhibition #team #elegant #luxury #quality #zen #design #lifestyle #philosophy #fine #art Likes: [igp-likes]... 13 März, 2018
Beautiful memory: In November 2016 I was in Japan and took this teabowl with me as a travel companion. It was one of my white porcelain bowls, handthrown and small so it needs not too much space in my luggage. I am now working with porcelain and I am throwing some teabowls, some of them are quite similar – I love them. #ceramics #tea #japan #tokyo #travel #teabowl #white #porcelain #memory #garden #handmade #craft #zen #drink #zurich #zürich #switzerland #tableware #pottery #design #elegant #fine #fineart #art #artwork #beautiful #delicat #travelling #memories Likes: [igp-likes]... 10 März, 2018
Me, working on a bowl – to fix the thread on a bowl is the very last step in my making process: The porcelain bowl is completely ready when this mark is on it.

Love story – me, working with the thread! For more than fiveteen years I am adding a red thread to my pieces: Sometimes I change the color to black or for very special – such as today – to gold: Ten thousand followers! Thank you deeply for your incredible support – it means a lot to me! It keeps me going. I also enjoy reading your comments – thanks again, you are all great!

Be careful! Me- last week – with a fresh black porcelain bowl that has to dry now. One of the black ones: When they are trimmed they are very delicate and I have to ‚handle with care‘. This pic also shows one of these porcelain bowls – a medium size one – I am preparing for a design event here in Zurich, called ‚blickfang’. After thirteen-years break I will be part of it again this year: November 10, 11 and 12 at stage one in Zurich/Oerlikon.

Evening still life: It was a long day, still throwing and trimming for the concept store project. I am happy to have this simple teabowl on my table – it gives me power and stillness at the same time. This white porcelain bowl is wheelthrown, delicate and translucent – good night everybody! #tea #porcelain #ceramics #tealovers #translucent #teabowl #zen #pottery #art #crafts #contemporaryart #making #simple #loft #working #series #delicate #stilllife #zurich #switzerland #white #photooftheday #exhibition #masterpiece #japan #picoftheday #scenery #beautiful #architecture #hongkong Likes: [igp-likes]... 26 Oktober, 2017

Love this place where I live and work when I am not in Zurich and I already wrote about before: It is a beautiful small village in the South of Switzerland, and there is the old house I am renovating. Actually it is impossible to work there at the moment because – as you can see on the photo – winter arrived, so it is cold in the house because there is no heating. I am working on it until the next winter…..But for photoshootings it is a very good place also in winter – some of the photos I posted recently have been taken there. It is a very quiet and romantic space surrounded by wonderful landscape and very nice people live in the village. There they do not speak German but Italian – and it brings back some memories from my childhood because my father was born in Italy. He died when I was in my twenties and he unfortunately never saw my pottery development. Well, when you travel through Switzerland you maybe stop by – the village is called Soazza and it is near Bellinzona. Does anyone of you know it? #love #landscape #nature #holiday #photo #snow #night #landschaft #dorf #village #winter #beautiful #art #romantik #schnee #töpferei #keramik #mesocco #misox #mesolcina #bellinzona #zurich #switzerland #architecture #style #winterland #handwerk #grisons #graubünden #craft Likes: [igp-likes]... 15 Januar, 2017
