the sweet job.

i was commissioned by recchiuti confections to make plates for their chocolates display case in the ferry building. each porcelain plate has the name of one of the incredible flavors (these are just some of their AMAZING flavors). wilma was the project manager on this job and hoping there would be chocolates at the end of the tunnel.

et voilà ! she was RIGHT. this is the box of chocolates they gave us when they picked up their order. i’m eating ONE a DAY and savoring each bite of these amazing delicacies.

fifty – 50.

i was commissioned to make party favors for a big 50 year birthday party. i made fallen porcelain leaves . . . each one formed by hand. i thought this would be an elegant way to mark this magnificent milestone.

beloved.

i am now offering customized pet urns. the difficulty of a beloved pet’s death can be overwhelmingly sad and such a huge loss. especially these days where dogs are the new babies, and we spend SO much time with them. i can say with great authority that i LOVE wilma as much as if i had birthed her myself ! here is one way to keep your pet’s memory alive every day. i designed this pet urn after one of my larger sculptural vessels. each urn is hand built out of porcelain and customized with your pet’s personal info.

details are here.

tried and true.

these plates are the first product that i made 17 years ago (which launched my clay career) and i am still making + selling them to this very day. i guess you could say they are my signature item. and although my work has evolved in so many other ways, these plates have remained exactly the same for all of these years. this batch is going to the gallery shop at the palo alto cultural center.

new vases.

there are a few new vases in my shop. i, for one, can never own too many vases. when i don’t have fresh flowers, i put sticks or curly willow stems in my vases. it adds a really nice touch to any room.
