  • Japanese dragon

    Unlike in European culture, in Japan and the Far East in general, dragons are not negative characters. Depending on historical periods and religions, they are associated with strength, wisdom, long life and good luck. Japanese dragons are depicted as serpent-like creatures. Unlike in European mythology, they do not have wings yet they can fly. They are typically aquatic creatures or water gods, which is why they are depicted almost everywhere where water and rain play a major role in people's lives. According to some beliefs, the Japanese imperial family are descendants of dragons.

Why handmade ceramics?

Ceramic tableware is an object that we use a lot, because it is there for every meal, every cup of tea or coffee. They are almost always in front of our eyes in our homes. And if we see so much of something, why shouldn't it be more than just a utensil?

Why not brighten our day with a happy picture?  

Why not cheer us up with a fond memory?

Or why not inspire us in our everyday lives?

I believe that unique specialities like these make our days more beautiful.

Take a look around and make your life more beautiful too.

Useful information about my products

My creations are unique hand painted handicrafts, for which I order the ceramics from Rokály Ceramics. Edina uses a casting technique to make my objects for me, which means that they are always the same size, but it is a handcrafted technique and requires a lot of manual finishing work so there can be slight variations in, say, the wall thickness of the vessels.

 

After painting, the ceramics are coated with a transparent glaze and then re-fired at around 1000°C. Thanks to this, they stand up well to everyday use, and we have been eating from them for years. They can also be safely put in the dishwasher and microwave. One thing to note is that they heat up a bit more in the microwave than mass-produced pots because of the thicker layer of paint.
