Description

This handbuilt ceramic vase continues the Floral Studies series – a personal exploration of natural forms and the quiet elegance of blooming shapes. Made from black stoneware, it reveals a subtle interplay between matte and glossy textures.
The exterior remains unglazed and is carefully polished by hand while leather-hard, resulting in a satin surface that feels warm and smooth to the touch. Inside, a transparent glaze creates a gentle contrast, while the glaze on the upper plane traces the outline of the flower, catching the light in a delicate, organic way.
Dark Bloom stands as both a sculptural object and a functional vessel – calm, tactile, and quietly expressive.

Handbuilt from black stoneware. Unglazed, hand-polished exterior; transparent glaze inside and on upper plane. Fired at 1250°C. Waterproof and suitable for fresh flowers.

About Elena Yakimushkina Visit Showroom →

Born on the Baltic Coast, I've always drawn inspiration for my artwork from the serene beauty of northern nature. Ceramics, for me, is not just a craft; it's a lifelong passion and a medium for my creative expression. I am endlessly fascinated by the diverse forms, materials, and techniques that ceramics offer. One of the greatest joys of working with clay is the opportunity to experiment with firing techniques. I have a particular fondness for raku firing and wood firing, drawn to the hands-on nature of these methods and the element of serendipity they bring to the creative process. In each ceramic piece I create, I infuse a part of myself, establishing a profound connection between artist and art. Thank you for joining me on this artistic journey.
