My white porcelain collection ‚snow’, 2012 – plates and bowls and cups. Here they are on the old wooden floor – all plates hand thrown in white porcelain and coated with a shiny or matte transparent glaze. I am still working on a bigger restaurant order with 150 pieces but in a few weeks I will throw some of my white porcelsin pieces in a larger number for a project and I am very curious how it will turn out at the end….Stay tuned! #ceramics #plates #craft #porcelain #white #series #projects #wood #floor #design #interior #interiordesign #tableware #dishes #zurich #switzerland #craft #minimalism #elegant #samples #rural #floor #architecture #japan #hongkong #idea #zen #beauty #dark

The foots: I am working more than fifteen years on different foot shapes, I made tea bowls as well as big bowls, beakers, mugs, jugs. Most of my ‚Masterpieces’ have a high and small foot – I thought, that was kind of my mark together with the thread…..My ‚master‘, the one who trained me for five years, did not always agree with these foots because the vessels are not easy to use. On this post: Two beakers, rough black stoneware, handthrown, without any glaze. With a red orange thread. Collection ‚potter pieces‘. Next week, my studio and showroom in Zurich will be open again: Wed-Fri 12-6 and Sat 11-2 and by appointment. DM for private view or sale.

White porcelain, again: One of my bowls that I made for the winter exhibition 2017, on this post you can see a detail of the foot. One of the reasons why I am working with porcelain is the possibility of translucence. I would never work with porcelain that is not translucent after the last firing. #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #light #white #translucent #delicate #sensible #fine #fineart #effect #exhibition #bowl #clay #handmade #craft #oneofakind #art #zurich #switzerland #tokyo #hongkong #korea #series #magic

Pates on the making – I had to try different things for a qute big private tableware comission: Sizes, shapes, weight hight etc. I needed so many pieces because of the glazing tests that I also had to do.

Today we had a wonderful spring day, it was warm and sunny, simply phantastic! On the table there are porcelain tea bowls, beakers and jugs – with flowers for the spring feeling. All hand thrown in white porcelain a wild tableware mix. I am still working wirh porcelain until the end of the next week -then I will go back to stoneware works: These will be my last works in my old studio. Strange feeling. #ceramics #ceramic #pottery #porcelain #spring #flowers #tulips #tableware #craft #handmade #switzerland #makersgonnamake #zurich #japan #sunny #elegant #white #scene #styling #modern #simplicity #minimalism #hongkong #series

Two of them: At the end they will be black, black porcelain. Incredible, right? They are hand thrown and will stay without glaze. Now both are still – drying….. for a couple of days, I think. It is important that they are completely dried before they go into the kiln. The bigger bowl has a diameter of 28 cm, the smaller one is 24 cm wide. On this post you can see darker and brighter parts, the darker ones have still more water in it vessel, the brighter ones are more dry. I will show them again when they are black. #ceramics #bowl #black #making #makingprocess #handmade #craft #porcelain #tableware #dishes #simple #pair #eat #restaurant #style #design #zürich #zurich #japan #hongkong #switzerland #zen #modern #drying #pottery #poetry

Black porcelain, teacups, handthrown and sannded, without any glaze: Today I finished trimming all the black porcelain works that I made during the week and changed to white porcelain. It is a special weather and the pieces need a lot of time to dry. Sometimes I really get nervous because I want to work a bit faster and I need all my reason to not force the time. Pottery needs its time, every potter know this and you have to adapt your flow to a lot of different factors that you cannot all influence. If you want to work against the nature of pottery, you often loose that game: The vessels will crack. During my quite long period as a potter I experienced that once. That was more than enough for me and I am waiting now more than long enough. I am grateful that my clients are patient and understand my way of working. Tomorrow I will check if the white porcelains ones will be ready for trimming – if not, I have to wait and read Patricia Highsmith. Love her thrillers. Have a lovely weekend everybody! #tea #ceramics #pottery #black #patience #waiting #weekend #shopping #drink #porcelain #work #handmade #craft #zurich #switzerland #patriciahighsmith #thriller #literature #zen #japan #hongkong #clients #luxury #dark #interiordesign #architecture

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

Me, working on a porcelain piece – more or less the same I am trhrowing right now: Today I have thrown some plats, not in white but in black porcelain. Tomorrow I will make some bowls and then I change again to the white porcelain: But before I can change the material, I have ro clean the studio for hours. The studio has to be very clean when I start working with the white porcelain, if not, the pieces will not be as pure as I love them. I think to be a potter is not so romantic as some people believe…. #studio #ceramics #handmade #craft #pottery #cleaning #white #black #architecture #workinprogress #plate #tableware #porcelain #series #interiordesign #switzerland #projects #zurich #hongkong #singapore #japan #luxury #elegant #romantic #myway #workshop #photography #picture #clay #zen

Some porcelain plates on the old wooden floor – all plates hand thrown in white porcelain and coated with a shiny transparent glaze. I made some samples in different sizes and shapes.

Me, throwing a small white porcelain plate, one of a lot…I am still working on different porcelain projects and tomorrow I will check how I can go on with the pieces, that I have alteady thrown last week. It depends from the drying process and the weather is still a bit difficult for that. I will see. #ceramics #porcelain #workinprogress #craft #pottery #potter #workshop #atelier #handmade #minimalism #zen #simplicity #interiordesign #dishes #plate #tableware #switzerland #zurich #interiors #architecture #rural #elegant #white #japan #china #hongkong #korea #design #simplicity

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.

Another new work for the December exhibition – porcelain bowl, medium size with a height of 28 cm: Simpel and pure – wheelthrown. I am in love with working on details such as trimming the foot for example: There are not many bowls that survive that process……Happy Sunday to everybody to wherever you are!

In October, my work will be part of an exhibition in Hong Kong and the organization team want me to send them a portrait: It was a new experience for me that I am ‘on stage’ and not my bowls…..It was on the last day before I left to Venice when we made this one – about hundreds others. I think I will send it to them.

Works from my porcelain collection, wheel thrown, very white and translucent and yes, delicate: I love to spend my time in going to the limits of my knowledge, my whole concentration and also to feel how the material becomes my partner.

From Tuesday to Friday, 13-18h I am in my studio and shop in Zurich – or, if you are not around, write me a message or check my website.
