Tbt to a wonderful afternoon in my mountain studio, preparing some matcha tea in my black porcelain bowls: I forget the real matcha tea bowls in Zurich, so I had to take these ones.

Blue work – in the shadow: I am working with porcelain, Regula is working with gold. Together we made this tea set ‚blue hour’ from blue porcelain with a disc in gold 18c in the middle of the jar and a ring around the foot, jar and two cups on a plate in brass. HRK edition 2018. I am in love with this wonderful set that I present in my showroom in Zurich. The blue looks brighter when there is light on it. This is the shadow version.

Happy Easter! Paradise is now: Again one of the red/white porcelain vessels that I made in January on a red/white porcelain plate – both with this matte and powdery surface. I tried for years to reach it, I am now quite happy with the result. At the end, I did not take the red ones to Tokyo. Hand thrown from white porcelain.

Good Morning from Zurich! I am back from Japan, have more or less finished the renovation of our house, at least as far as we could move into our new home – today I finally start working in the studio. And I have to say thank you to my clients for their pacience: Some of them are waiting for months! #ceramics #ceramic #pottery #kitchen #tableware #pot #plant #shelves #wood #interiordesign #interiorarchitecture #plate #cup #tea #coffee #aesop #renovation #studio #handmade #zurich #switzerland #japan #tokyo #makersgonnamake #contemporary #brass #morning #lifestyle #homesweethome

Hi from my studio and my gallery in Soazza/GR: I wish you all a brilliant start into the last hours before 2019!

Back to stoneware: I started with new coffee cups in two sizes – the ones on the photo are hand thrown and coated with a matte light green glaze. This time I will make light blue ones and lavender ones – fourty pieces for Sai’s restaurant and some more for my shop in Zurich.

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

At home 4: A simple coffee cup and a plate, hand thrown, white porcelain the cup, brown stoneware the plate and both coated with a transparent glaze. It is still grey, cold and wet in Zurich, hard to believe that there are places around where the sun is shining – I am missing the warm days so so much! I make a break, together with my black coffee, a small sandwich and my headache – and the ‚nomad‘ my husband bought for me: Reading in that inspiring magazing helps to forget about my Monday mood…..dreaming to live as a nomad, too. #coffee #porcelain #ceramics #coffeebreak #black #white #zen #design #art #crafts #contemporaryart #making #simple #culture #working #series #wheretogo #stilllife #zurich #switzerland #tableware #interior #nomad #lifestyle #japan #winter #scenery #interior #architecture #home

Finally as promised: The other samples of the plates for the restaurant. Also hand thrown in stoneware and coated with the black matte glazed.

1/1/18 Black beauties again: Plates and a small teabowl, hand thrown in stoneware and coated with a black matte glaze – some of the samples for a restaurant order. The next post will show the other shape I made for them….Soon I will know which one they prefer and then I will begin with throwing hundreds of pieces for them. I start into the new year with a lot of interesting projects – but first I am relaxing and enjoy my free weeks with doing nothing than reading, sleeping, eating – lazy days in a small village with snow are beautiful, aren‘t they? #tea #tableware #food #design #black #ceramics #zen #stoneware #art #crafts #contemporaryart #making #simple #restaurant #working #series #delicate #stilllife #zurich #switzerland #white #tableware #home #masterpiece #japan #restaurant #scenery #interior #architecture #lifestyle

Like the sky or the ocean: These little beauties make me dream – another coffee cup impression. I love the rough blue stoneware clay together with my matt blue glaze. And the blue of the cups together with the dark brown from the blue mountain coffee match well Blue allover! I also made two sizes of these cups, medium size for a cappuccino and a smaller size for espresso. My father was born in Italy, he sure was an ‚influencer‘ for my coffee taste……The gems are available in my shop in Zurich and also in my online shop: shop.helga-ritsch.ch . And new: They are available at the concept store 90sqm in Zurich! I made about 80 coffee- and espressocups and throw them with three different clays: When I finished with one clay, it was a lot to clean before I could start with the next type. Being a potter is not the easy way……I am often suprised that so many seem to dream about it? #coffee #ceramics #espresso #blue #modern #minimalism #brand #colourful #tableware #craft #luxury #switzerland #zurich #zürich #pottery #matt #lifestyle #cup #exclusive #artoftheday #photooftheday #photo #bowl #cappuccino #tableware #zen #japan #korea #china #perfection #new

In spring I planted hydrangea in my garden and their color gave me inspiration for these glazes. I tried to achieve these colors for the coffeecups I planned to make for this winter season – here they are! I made two sizes and five different colors: lavendel, iceblue, springgreen, darkrose and white – the galzes are all matt on a speckled stoneware clay. Available in my shop in Zurich or via my online shop.helga-ritsch.ch . And: They are also available at the concept store 90sqm in Zurich. More information will follow! I am happy that all the 80 coffeecups came out of the kiln in a nice result, I was very curious about because I not often create glazes with colorpigments – I was relieved to see that the colors really are like the ones from my hydrangeas in my garden….. I am now working on my next project and I am throwing 61 porcelain bowls for the exhibition that will start December 1st. I have not a lot of time and I am working quite hard. Will show you more about in the next days – and tell you what I am doing with all these bowls….. #coffee #ceramics #espresso #pastel #modern #minimalism #brand #colourful #tableware #craft #luxury #switzerland #zurich #zürich #pottery #matt #lifestyle #cup #exclusive #artoftheday #photooftheday #photo #bowl #cappuccino #tableware #zen #japan #korea #china #perfection #new
