Ceramicist Arielle de Gasquet lives and works in Paris. There she creates pieces that are influenced by a Japanese aesthetic – with clean lines and a sense of restraint. The teapot has an elegant brass handle, and the intense midnight glaze would suit a contemporary or a classic kitchen. As these pieces are handmade, please expect variations.
It was while living in New York a decade ago that Parisian, Arielle de Gasquet fell into ceramics – “you could say that ceramics found me”. Looking to make a vase for her ikebana course she was introduced to a ceramics studio filled with members of the Japanese community – “they kindly said I must have been a ceramicist in another life”.
