Ginkgo - Tea ware - Switzerland

[Mrs. Chip]

... the inside is soft and glossy and the outside bubbling , like crisp corn flakes !!

Very, very reminiscent of coral, I love it!!! Thanks for sharing your awesome work with us ginkgo!

Here is another incredible work by Ginkgo, It's extrordinary. It looks rough, but is not. It is a joy to use. And just look at that interior.

Thank you Ginkgo!

I think she 's been busy lately, moving, building up a new studio, etc.

She has a new website here, and a french blog where you can follow her adventures.

Enjoy !

Ginkgo,
Your studio looks amazing! I very like such modernist architecture. How many sq m?

hello,
if you come to Switzerland, you are welcome !!! ...
it is big because I have project to have "students" and to give ceramics lessons so ...it is not just for me . ( about 90m 2) . I will show the view...there are mountains just in front and they always changed colors.
The architect has made something very personal and I let him choose and work as he feels and...the results are overcoming my wishes so I am very grateful to him . ( previous one was such as big surface but...it was in underfloor so very dark and cold too...)

What an ASTOUNDINGLY beautiful view!!!!!!!!!

And congratulations on the new studio; looks nice. Hoe about pix of the inside?

best,

.............john

View is even more beautiful and spectacular I could expect!

Like John I am waiting for shots of the inside too. 90 m2 sounds very nice especially if you have to share your space with students.
I know (said too much, simple he won the contest for a building of warsaw museum of modern art) only one architect from Switzerland - Christian Kerez but I see you have some more very talented minimalists.

And thank you for your ivitation and of course if you will be around Warsaw area you are welcome too!

I just want to show my experiments...something too much bubblings or too much retiring-glaze ....but with that too much it is possible to makes corrections and search a way to have what i want...with time and more tryings ! for "the fun" ,

first : oribe under shino : big cackling bubbles ..and dark green

curious oribe-shino with big bubbling crackles...

[Chip]

Even the ones you are not happy with show a lot of promise ... and are intriguing nevertheless.

The last three are beauties.

Good to see you again.
