Michele Bianco - Unfurl Vessel (Jade green, small)

Hand carved, tinted grogged stoneware with a jade green glaze

10cm tall, 15cm wide, 15cm deep

The starting point for Michele Bianco’s work is always walking and sketching. She is inspired by the forms, patterns and textures in the world around her home in the stunning west highlands of Scotland: the mesh of branches on wintry trees, the geometric patterns in eroded rock faces or the intricate structures of pods, leaves and petals. 

All Michele’s pieces are hand built using a range of techniques: pinching, coiling and slab building. Once the initial form is created, it goes through a series of manipulations - smoothing, paddling, refining – until she is happy with the shape. The surface is then altered by carving into the clay by hand, the form the carving takes determined by the shape of the vessel.

Michele's vessels look wonderful on their own or, for extra drama, as part of a collection.
