Bold geometry meets centuries-old craftsmanship in a piece that feels collected rather than simply purchased. Handmade in the Berkshire hills of Massachusetts,
Michael Wainwright carves each vessel using the sgraffito technique, revealing striking layers of color beneath the surface of the clay. The result is mesmerizing from every angle: dramatic black-and-white patterns that draw the eye inward while giving fresh flowers an equally artful stage. With limited distribution outside the artist's own studio, these statement-making vessels bring the rarity and presence of gallery ceramics into everyday living spaces.
- Created using the traditional sgraffito technique, where carved lines reveal contrasting layers beneath the surface.
