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.
Custom Cabinet for Fellow Artist
We created this handmade tile embellished cabinet for a fellow-artist and friend, Sharon Tesser. She gave us the approximate dimensions, we found this cabinet on one of our journeys, sketched up some ideas, and after Sharon’s approval got to work! She uses it in her studio to store her supplies. We are so honored to be asked to create a piece for her. Please have a look at her amazing original fabric collage wall art, scarves, and pillows at https://sharontesser.com/
We had fun with the window view of the cheerful birds on the whimsical tree branches. Each tile here started by hand carving slab stoneware clay and after its final raku firing is mosaiced with semiprecious stones and grout. Here we used cultured pearls, magnasite, coral, jade, and others. Please contact us if you have a project you would like to discuss.
Repurposed Vintage Indian Teak Shutters with Handmade Ceramic Tile Mosaic Art
Repurposed Vintage Indian Teak Shutters
What a beautiful day today! We’ve got a breeze blowing through the studio and the birds are whistling while we work! #ilovemyjob As we are doing a little rearranging, we set these repurposed shutters outside the studio door. Made a nice pic, we think!
Besides placing these on either side of a window, we find that a lot of customers like to use these in to soften the look of a large flatscreen tv wall. They also make a great focal point at the end of a hallway. And we have had several customers use them outside on covered porches. Also great for a bathroom.
We refreshed this set of vintage Indian teak shutters with our hand carved stoneware clay tile mosaics. We are inspired by ethnic patterns and have included some of our favorites here. Some of the semiprecious stones included in these pieces are cultured pearl, amethyst, jade, magnesite and coral. Overall Dimensions: 11” x 47” each or put together 22” x 47” They are a one of a kind set. Find them here>>

Colorful Pottery Wall Art Entryway Coat Hook
We love the joyful feel of bright colors. We are often asked how we get such bright colors. Our palette of glazes and underglazes consists of 13 colors, but since we layer these colors, the number and depths of the colors are multiplied. After glazing we raku fire the tiles which usually adds a bit of iridescence and some unexpected personality.
This repurposed vintage trim wall shelf features a set of our colorful handmade clay tile mosaics in varying patterns of dots, vine, suzani, etc. We add semiprecious stones into the tiles to add a little more sparkle and texture. With the set of repurposed vintage coat hooks, it’s what we like to call functional wall art. We think it would look great in a mudroom or entryway. Find it here>>
