Description

Arlene Kushnir’s creative process involves historical methods used through the ages.  She first shapes and trims each form on a potter’s wheel, and once it is leather hard she carves in intricate patterns on the surface.  After bisque firing, she hand paints with different glazes and fires in an electric kiln, twice at a high temperature.  The geometric patterns you see in her works reflect the world we live in.  Where we are interconnected and dependent on one another. Both functional and decorative each piece is carefully hand crafted and one-of-a-kind.

Care & Use: All functional ware are microwave, dishwasher, water safe, and food safe.  However, it is not ovenproof.

Material: Porcelain
