Our ceramic atelier is an association of artists and ceramists many of whom are members of various professional societies and associations based on family craft businesses.
This is why our works are of authorship even when we rework famous historical objects of art or use our standard molds.
This is also why you can get exceptional art objects made for your home in one singular exemplar. Even when they are made using our standard molds, there’s always a unique component to them: low relief murals, carved ceramics, art murals or complex multilayered brilliant glazing.
Our seamless slab murals are done from a clay slab, which is made when an artist rolls clay like dough, then replicates the desired picture on it and then cuts it up on a needed amount of different pieces.
The seams (cut lines) fall on the silhouette lines so during the assembly and installation of such murals the seams seemingly blend into the picture and become unnoticeable, thus not ruining the picture.
After the firing we put the mural together like a puzzle, polish it so the pieces come together smoothly and then cover it with white enamel so that we can get to painting.
During the drying and firing the slab distorts slightly, however after the grinding these warpages remain nothing but hints which only add expression and factor of handmade to the mural.
After the sintering the colors of the mural solder into the enamel and secure themselves on the slab, almost forever preserving the gloss and vibrance on the ceramic painting.
