Your eyes will tell you this piece is soft knitting but your touch will tell you it’s ceramic. And they both will be right, because clay doesn’t get knitted, and knitting isn’t usually hard. But here it is: a lovely knit, and gently shaped porcelain vase with a casual criss-crossing cord appliqué. How? It starts with a handknit cotton design which is dipped in liquid porcelain, shaped as it dries and fired to temperature. The cotton burns away, leaving a detailed memory of the knitting. It is light, showing all the handknit details. It is strong because porcelain, contrary to its appearance, is quite dense. What remains is the amazement. It has a signed slab bottom. See all the photos to enjoy this one of a kind piece. We sometimes have more than one in this style, each naturally different. Yours will be similar in size and stitch patterning, but will have its own unique charms.

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