S H I V A • L I N G A M This one-of-a-kind object has many faces. It’s my modern interpretation of the sacred form of the Lingham, the ancient symbol of fertility and of the god Shiva in Hinduism. My Indian ancestral family's house-god. It is the symbol of unity between a man and woman, the sacred moment of creation 💥
This is made from sand colored clay with a grainy texture, with a matte white glaze.

Who said plates have to be round?
These square plates are not only great for snacks, but also as a soap dish, or to organize your lotions and potions, or to place your keys when you come home.
This glaze combination I lovingly call Cougar. My Japanese studio Togei in New York had the most incredible natural glazes, muted tones handmade from secret family recipes. The combination of two, created this one 🐾🐾

It's the end of an era!
Starting today until the end of this month, all items from my NY years are marked-down 30% in this end of season sale. Maybe you've had your eye on something 🤩, now's the time before these made in NY beauties go for an eternal sleep in the permanent archive 🌬😴
Starting in March the on-line store will be on a little vacation while we make some big moves, stay tuned for new things coming down the line 💥💫

What do you see? 🔭 I see mountain peaks and starry skies ✨ I love how rotating the piece creates a whole new skyline creating horizons around the body of the bowl.
My Japanese studio, Togei, in New York had the most incredible natural glazes, muted tones handmade from family recipes.
And this combination of grey and black glazes mysteriously created specks of gorgeous gold that catch the light.
These large one-of-a-kind bowls grab attention at a table, are equally beautiful empty or functionally full.

These shades and textures are mesmerizing 🤩. A slight turn of a vase and we have a whole new look. It was made using the Japanese technique called Raku, known for the other-worldly iridescent colors it creates. Made in the autumn time in upstate New York 🍂🍁, the surface design mirrors the place it came from. ⠀
⠀
The porousness of the vase makes it a decorative object to be enjoyed as statement piece in your home.⠀
⠀
The Raku process: by quickly removing the raw pottery from the kiln while at bright-red heat, we place it into containers full of natural combustible materials (horse hair, leaves, papers), and starve it of oxygen by closing the lid. This drastic thermal shock affects the colors in the glazes and clay bodies, producing cracking and an array of unnatural colors -if you’re lucky. In fact the magic of Raku, is really never knowing what you will get 💫

P R I N C E cup. This one-of-a-kind Raku cup has so many moods. 🔮 The purples in this piece make it feel regal and the unexpected patterns so mesmerizing. Metallic rainbow colors are exemplary of the Raku technique - the low-fire process that creates the most unusual surface colors. Inspired by traditional Japanese Raku firing which uses all of nature’s elements (earth, fire, air, water). The name “Raku” itself translates to ‘happiness is the accident.’ ⚡️⠀

Today is Human Trafficking Awareness Day in the USA, and no better time than to thank🏅@oschulze @rommynyc @megerhead @chivasdevinck whose holiday purchases helped to raise $50 which is donated to our Aanu Seva 2017 partner @apneaap to continue their crusade against trafficking. If you are not familiar check out Apne Aap’s phenomenal work in the field or DM us for info. Big claps all round 👏🏾!! Thank you for your support!!⠀
⠀
BACKGROUND 〰️ At Aanu, our mission as a social entrepreneurship is sharing the therapeutic aspects of working with clay with people, who through no fault of their own, live in the margins of society. In 2017 we fundraised and set up a workshop in India in partnership with NGO Apne Aap.
Over the next month, we’ll be re-posting the journey of the 2017 workshop 🎈
⠀
SEVA 〰️ Seva is the Sanskrit word for the act of service - to give back - an expression of compassion for others and a genuine desire to uplift those around you.⠀
⠀
Creative expression shouldn’t be a privilege. Providing those without access the potential to create, offering an alternate perspective outside of their everyday realities is the aim of the Aanu Seva project.⠀

T H U M B S cup. What if we all had big thumbs 🤔? This study in handles is exemplary of the ‘Naked Raku’ technique which is known for these beautiful apocalyptic, smoke-y, mono-chromatic patterns.
Raku is usually still porous after firing, and is a decorative over a functional piece. To create this 'Naked' look we cover the bisque fired piece with slip (liquid clay) and sometimes a clear or white glaze on top, we continue with the Raku firing process.
