CERAMICS.

Shape. Texture. Color. Function.

POTTERY BY BRANDON D’AUGUSTINE

Inspired by nature, handmade craftsmanship to compliment any setting.

Brandon is involved in the entire ritual of clay. He makes a number of his tools by hand, fires his own work, and often mines, blends, and processes his own clay.

Perfection should never the goal of making pottery: We can easily find that in mass produced plastic wasteware, computers, and chain store imports. Beauty is more readily found in an organic form, elicited here in clay.

CERAMICS AS A PROCESS

ORGANIC, TACTILE SATISFACTION

AN ANCIENT CRAFT IN MODERN HANDS

One of the earliest skills which made human civilization possible, pottery has the ability to bring us close to the origins of human collaboration. Share a rustic cup of tea with a loved one, or pass a warm serving bowl to your neighbor. Observe the timeless ritual of bringing friends and family together for hearty sustenance.
