simple rings

The talented Thatsanee and Ramphan in Thailand present this pretty tea set, just right for two. Dark green elephants parade around both the teapot and the 2 cups, which are handcrafted of celadon ceramic with a light green crackle glaze. The coordinating saucers feature a simple border in dark green.

Kanda handcrafts this vase with clay, delicately glazing the surface with a fine blue tone. Queuing elephants march on the unglazed ring surrounding the lower shoulder, as the natural background provides a harmonious visual contrast. Steeped in Thai tradition, this piece makes a wonderful gift.

Monica de Castellanos' ceramic angel sculptures are a true treasure trove for art enthusiasts. Inspired by her love for angels and the vibrant Guatemalan culture, each piece in her collection is carefully hand-painted with incredible attention to detail, depicting traditional attire from various regions of her country. This sculpture is a prime example, showcasing the stunning costume of Chichicastenango. The fuchsia blouse or hüipil with its intricate geometric patterns, paired with the striped blue skirt, is simply mesmerizing while the golden harp and the exquisite wings add to the sculpture's allure.
