This clock it is entirely hand made. It is hand thrown on the pottery wheel, bisque fired, glazed, painted and then fired a second time. I decorated this piece with a geometrical design composed from hues of sunflower yellow and deep blue, which are my favorite colors. This clock will be a great addition to a kitchen or a living room area. On the back of the clock there is a metal loop, so that it can be hung on the wall.

The calm and tranquil palate of blue colors of the Mediterranean Sea was the inspiration for this large wall plate. The piece is decorated with a series of geometrical rings. On the back of this plate there is a metal loop for hanging.

These canisters are a modern adaptation of the old Albarello medicinal jars, which were      designed to hold apothecaries’ ointments and herbs. Medicinal jars have their roots in the Middle East and were brought to Italy by Hispano-Moresque traders.

The earliest Italian examples were produced in Florence in the 15th century. This set of jars are hand thrown. The shape of the jar emulates bamboo, which was the traditional manufacturing material. For the painted design I chose a bright yellow and a soft blue. These jars are ideal for storing your favorite pasta, rice and cookies. They are also a beautiful counter decor.
