beautiful ceramics

Emily Oster

When I think of gorgeously styled kitchens (yes this is something that crosses my mind), I envision open shelves featuring beautiful ceramics. Ceramics are something I haven't gotten into collecting (yet) but they are for sure on my list of wants. Form, function and aesthetics - they have it all in just one small tumbler or plate.

Below are three artisans creating some amazing ceramics definitely worth checking out. 

Studio Joo

Studio Joo by Elaine Tian is based in Brooklyn and combines Tian background in both graphic design and sculpture. The collection is comprised mostly of porcelain vessels and light fixtures and features a soft and delicate color palette applied to interesting but still functional forms. 

Studio One Suite

Studio One Suite represents the work of Lindsay Emery - a North Carolina based artist specializing in small batch ceramics with limited editions. With many of her pieces having gold accents, the current collection is light, bright and makes me think of Spring. 

Arrow + Sage

Arrow + Sage is another North Carolina based studio created and run by ceramicist Anna Eaves. A self taught potter with a background in photography and fine arts, Eaves pieces are simple and classic in both design and finish.

custom portraits

Emily Oster

Right now, gift guides are everywhere in the blogosphere - for him, for her, under $50, for the dog lover etc. I, personally, find them incredibly helpful as I start my Christmas shopping and hope not to run out of ideas/time as I gather my holiday gifts. One idea that I have seen which I really like comes from Hither & Thither - a custom portrait. I had never given this sort of thing much thought but as we have gotten a bit older and have many friends going through significant life milestones - marriages, babies, new homes, pets - I think it would make a great, super personalized gift. I found these illustrators and artists on Etsy. As a group they offer custom portraits of people, homes, couples, pets and more across a range of prices. Some of them are still even guaranteeing delivery before Christmas!
