Dragonfly Ceramic and Mosaic Art Bowl

This custom ordered stoneware ceramic and mosaic art bowl was ordered by a longtime client in Michigan.  Because she wanted to feature the bowl on her oversized coffee table, she asked us to make the largest bowl we could. We asked our friend Monte Young to throw this 20 inch bowl for us and we carved this whimsical pattern into the raw clay, then bisque fired, glazed in this bold palette, and fired again. She especially likes dragonflies so we incorporated them here and added mosaic accents of turquoise, amethyst, cultured pearl, and bits of coral as well.

We enjoy the process of working with customers to create a piece that suits their needs.  If you are interested in a custom piece of your own, find more info here.  Find more handcarved art bowls in our online shop.

Just getting this Mid Century inspired, mounted clay tile mosaic wall art ready to ship to Australia today!  It’s a great feeling to know that we can share our work, not only in our own neck of the woods, but also worldwide.  We have to give a shout out to etsy here, as etsy is our online storefront which allows us to reach customers all around the world right from the comfort of our small studio in southern Indiana.  

After slab rolling stoneware clay, we hand carve the design into the clay. After bisque firing, glazing, firing and a trip to the raku pit, we then gild the lilly by adding magnesite, coral, jade, amethyst, and cultured pearl.  It is then grouted and mounted so that it may be hung as colorful wall art. This piece is approximately 4.75” x 12.75” x 1.5”

We have never been to Australia but it’s on the list!  We follow a few Australian artists and Tammy Kanat, a weaver, is a standout among them.  Her work is wonderfully colorful with intriguing patterns and textures.  Have a look!

Peacock Pair Mosaic Wall Art in Repurposed Vintage Frame

Fortunately we had a pretty day yesterday and snapped a shot of “Peacock Pair” just outside our studio.  This handcarved stoneware clay tile mosaic piece we show here is actually made up of several tiles (we carve the slab clay and then cut into separate tiles) and then the tiles are set into one of our “finds,” a repurposed vintage frame that we painted black.  Semiprecious stones included in this mosaic are cultured pearl, amethyst, jade, magnesite and coral.  This is a statement piece.  Overall Dimensions: 29.5” x 29.5” x 2.5”

You can find it (and more!) in our booth at Cincinnati’s Summerfair this weekend, May 31-June 2!  Shop early for best selection!
