THE DESIGN

People want to personalize their surroundings with original handmade items which are often functional as well as eye-catching. Tourists often purchase unique cultural items rather than small souvenirs for personal use and for family and friends and local courses grant an appreciation for the skill, time and money needed to produce high quality craft work.

A new face in functional pottery, Living Wells Studio is a collection of small-run, hand-built, high-fire stoneware produced in Kamloops, BC, Canada. The style is fun, original and yet very universal.

Handmade stamps decorate surfaces. Muted earth tones and pale white glazes grace simple forms.

The HUMBLE pottery collection features domestically centered works, with an emphasis on functionality. The collection reflects a study of rational geometric form in all its expressive possibilities and an earthy glaze treatment that places value on the natural and the imperfect.

There are different families of objects, and different surface treatments on thrown and hand built pieces .

They grow out of the careful observation of the decorative needs of contemporary spaces. Groups of three to four pieces with different dimensions and proportions highlight even more strongly the study of form and create beautiful vingnettes.
