SCULPTURE
All sculptural vases are designed to find the balance between functional and sculptural. This comes from my fascination for the relationship between art and craft.
My sculptural works all measure from 20cm up to 1m, for specific measurements you can always contact me.
Tableware
As the daughter of artists, my love for pottery runs deep. Growing up surrounded by my mother's ceramics studio and my father's sculpture studio, I witnessed firsthand the dedication and artistry required to create a personal collection. Each piece I make is a labor of love, crafted with the utmost care and attention to detail. Discover my fine pottery that will add warmth and elegance to your family gatherings.
