And here they are – at least a part of them: After many hours of work, I could sand all the bottoms and put them@all together. Tableware pieces for a party of sixteen: My stoneware collection ‚PUR’, launched in 2006. Hand thrown stoneware, coated with four different craquele celadon glazes. On this photo: Plates – diameter of 30 cm- and quite big cups – diameter of 12 cm, special wish – for coffee or tea. Soon, all pieces will left to their new home. I hope the clients will love them – you never know, I am always nervous. #ceramics #ceramic #clay #earth #handmade #craft #elegant #zen #dark #tableware #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #series #simple #minimalism #japan #blue #restaurant #food #plate #bowl #cup #coffee #tea #green #brown Likes: [igp-likes]... 16 November, 2018

‚the future belongs to the few of us still willing to get our hands dirty‘ . In 2011, I made these vessels as a shape study, all are hand thrown in different clays and also fired in different ‚systems’. Later, I filled some of them with plants. I still love this picture from my exhibition that I had in 2012. Let‘s hope the saying will be true! #pottery #ceramics #craft #handmade #clay #earth #exhibition #plants #fire #smoke #zurich #switzerland #art #series #shape #simple #japan #love #vessel #vase Likes: [igp-likes]... 29 März, 2018

….and with its big brother: A vase, also handbuilt and with smoke traces from the open fire. Well, this was a view back to past and I hope it was interesting – tomorrow I will show again present works. #beauty #ceramics #vase #memories #keramik #pottery #töpferei #clay #stoneware #making #handmade #stilllife #earth #keramik #art #handmade #schwarz #minimal #simple #perfect #contemporaryart #zurich #switzerland #architecture #style #series #smoke #steinzeug #japan #korea #craft Likes: [igp-likes]... 22 Januar, 2017
And another old work from the same series as on the picture before: Handbuilt and big (diameter about 30cm), a vase coated only with smoke traces from an open fire. Years ago I made a lot of handbuilt works, then I stopped. I am not sure why I did not go on…. but probably I will restart working with this technique that I liked much. #beauty #ceramics #vase #memories #keramik #pottery #töpferei #clay #stoneware #making #handmade #stilllife #earth #keramik #art #handmade #schwarz #minimal #simple #perfect #contemporaryart #zurich #switzerland #architecture #style #series #smoke #steinzeug #japan #korea #craft Likes: [igp-likes]... 21 Januar, 2017
