Your eyes will tell you this piece is soft knitting but your touch will tell you it’s clay. And they both will be right in a certain sense, because clay doesn’t get knitted, and knitting isn’t at all hard. But here it is: a lovely intricately knit and shaped porcelain ribbed cup in a unique seed and plain stripe. How? It starts with a handknit cotton shape which is dipped in liquid porcelain, shaped as it dries and fired to temperature. The cotton burns away, leaving a lovely detailed memory of the knitting. It is light, showing all the handknit details. It is strong because porcelain, contrary to its appearance, can be quite tough. What remains is the amazement. See all the photos to enjoy.

This one of a kind piece is entirely hand-made, from knitting the original form to dipping it in liquid porcelain to tending and shaping while it dries. The kiln’s heat can also add to the gesture. It is signed on the bottom slab. See all the photos!
