Dreaming? I am almost sold out again and I did not expect this. But I have prepared two more kilns with black porcelain works, so I will be able to show some new works in about three weeks. Thanks, big thanks to all the many visitors of the last weeks in my workshop as well as in my online gallery. I bow, I am overwhelmed – I did not expect this when I came to my mountain studio almost two months ago. It is more than great and it lets me continue on my own way. On the picture: The blu porcelain beakers in my studio in Soazza. Visits are still welcome by appointment. I will reopen my Zurich based studio and showroom this Friday, 12-6 as usual. Visits by appointment are of course also possible. I live in at least two worlds – so please make an appointment either in Soazza or in Zurich. Thank you so much! #ceramics #ceramic #tea #beaker #porcelain #handmade #craft #minimalism #happy #blu #style #art #zurich #zen #fineart #lifestyle #makersgonnamake #shadow #simple #elegant #tableware #helgaritschceramics #contemporaryceramics #gallery #exhibition #porcelain #excellence #object #cup

Work in progress: I showed you many of my teabowls in the past – here I am working on one of them. The shape is always delicate and very simple because I like such ‘minimal’ forms. Actually I have not a lot in my shop but I am working on it as you can see – so pls check my online shop in a few weeks to get one, if you like them. #tea #teacup #tableware #ceramics #stoneware #porcelaine #simple #making #photo #blackandwhite #switzerland #zurich #handmade #minimalism #simple #pottery #fff #zen #shape #form #piapourens #architecture #shadow #modern #clay #contemporaryart #picoftheday #perfect #japan #work

HOPE: The summer will definitely come back. 2019. For two decades I have been working sporadically on groups of works with the main titles ‘HOPE’ and ‘HOPELESS’. With ‘HOPE: the summer will definitely come back’ I present another work that fits into this topic. The group I created in 2019 – consisting of seven hand thrown vessels in different sizes and shapes – is dedicated to the melancholy I have had since childhood: It always comes when the summer comes to an end.

Hard to believe: In only two month, this year comes to an end! Within the next weeks I will fire a last kiln with a lot of teabowls, plates and vases. Most of the works are customer orders: On this photo you see my black teabowls, some of my favourite ones. They are all made in black porcelain, hand thrown – like black pesrls. #tea #porcelain #ceramics #tealovers #black #teabowl #zen #design #art #crafts #contemporaryart #making #simple #shadow #working #series #delicate #stilllife #zurich #switzerland #tableware #interior #exhibition #masterpiece #japan #celebrate #scenery #interior #architecture #home

And now the bowls are in their first firing – normally this act is without any risk and I am looking forward to glaze them all in about 48 hours. When I was in Vienna last Saturday, I bought some simple wooden spoons to complete the bowls. Soon I will know, if they fit together. #ceramics #bowls #firing #kiln #pottery #eat #soup #spoon #wood #woodworking #zurich #switzerland #vienna #japan #korea #simple #minimalism #shadow #series #handmade #craft #breakfast #white

I am also working on porcelain bowls: These have still to dry after they were thrown and trimmed. The drying time ist the longest in the process – these are black porcelain bowls for a chef and also for my shop. In sbout two weeks they will be ready to ship. At the moment, my shelves are full with plates and bowls – and quite all have still to dry. #ceramics #eat #clay #simplicity #modern #minimalism #handmade #singapore #porcelain #craft #luxury #switzerland #zurich #zürich #pottery #töpferei #dark #exhibition #art #artoftheday #photooftheday #photo #bowl #shadow #zen #japan #korea #china #perfection #series

So sorry for the confusion about the last posts – I tried to explain to my mother how IG is working, that is why I corrected and deleted and posted My mother was twentytwo when I was born, she is not extremely old now – but not from the millenium generation: I needed good nerves….But here again the table with the coffeecups, still drying, now on the top because the bottom dries better like this. I am at the studio every day because I have still a lot to do, glazing, cleaning, trimming and and – soon soon I will present the result.

Waiting….. I learnt it during my years as a potter, you always has to wait: Until the clay has the right condition to throw, until the thrown pieces are ready to trim, until the trimmed pieces are ready for firing, until the kiln has cooled and you can pick out the works, until the glaze is dried….. now I am waiting until my trimmed coffee gems are dry enough for the first firing. To be honest: Waiting is still hard for me because I am not a patient person, I never was. During I am waiting, I start throwing new works, back to porcelain: But first I have to clean my studio because I need an absolutely clean working space for the porcelain work. Customers are also waiting – for the ordered works: Thanks a lot for your patience! Because I am working alone in my studio sometimes waiting time could be four to six weeks for an order – or longer, depending on the quantity. Ovid once said: ‚Take rest – a field that has rested gives a bountiful crop‘. So I first take a rest and drink a cup of tea, using a white porcelain bowl – than I start cleaning. Happy day to everyone! Btw: The porcelain bowl on the pic is SOLD #ceramics #tea #white #simplicity #modern #minimalism #blue #porzellan #porcelain #craft #luxury #switzerland #zurich #zürich #pottery #töpferei #rest #exhibition #art #artoftheday #photooftheday #photo #bowl #shadow #zen #japan #korea #china #perfection #gem

Back in Zurich, it is so much colder than on the south side of Switzerland where I was the last days……On this post I present new works for the next exhibition, some simple bowls, medium size. All porcelain wheelthrown: I used white, black and blue porcelain (I mixed my own porcelain and I am very curious about the result) and they are now waiting for the firing. There are already some other works in the kiln so they have to wait until Wednesday….All these works are for my next exhibition (dec 1st – dec 23rd) that takes place in my gallery in Zurich. I am excited about that upcoming event and more than happy also to present a absolutely special project created in cooperation with my very talented friend Regula @regula_kilchsperger .

New work for the next exhibition – a simple bowl, medium size with a height of 27 cm: Black and pure and soon with a red thread – porcelain, wheelthrown without any glaze, delicate and dark. One of my favourite works. Last week I was working with porcelain only – for my next exhibition (dec 1st – dec 23rd) that takes place in my gallery in Zurich. I am excited about that upcoming event and more than happy to present a absolutely special project created in cooperation with my very talented friend Regula @regula_kilchsperger .
