Hand Made Ceramic Vase, Ceramic Sculpture, Earthy Modern Ceramic Sculpture
About the Item
Joseph Skoby is a Southern Californian whose work is inspired by the nature of his native state. His ceramics, created in his own lush garden, recall his intimate dance with the ocean as a lifelong surfer, a pure form of self-expression that disappears after each wave. Each vessel is hand thrown and crafted in his studio in La Jolla California. No piece is alike.
His work finds inspiration in the traditional Japanese ceramics Craft, combined with the freedom of diving into the contemporary. The pieces embody an aesthetic principle where imperfections become the birthplace of unique beauty.
Textured with hand carved patterns or smooth to the surface, Skoby’s ceramics abandon their functional purpose as vase and become a sculptural element end in itself.
Glazes are combined with an excellent balance of tasteful varietal palette of colors often overlapped, layered, dipped, brushed or poured.
Simple yet profound, Skoby’s work looks beautiful paired in groups, forming a harmonious relationship mirroring that of his own with nature.

Ceramic Hoopoes Vase, Hand made in South Africa
By Zimele Ceramics
Located in North Miami, FL
The Hoopoes and Proteas vase is a stunning example of South African ceramic artistry, crafted by the skilled hands of Lindy and Victor at Zimele Ceramics. This exquisite piece, standing 23 cm tall, 15 cm in length, and 12 cm in width, showcases a harmonious blend of hand-painted and hand-sculpted elements. The vase features vibrant depictions of the hoopoe bird and protea flowers, each meticulously rendered to celebrate their cultural significance.
In African culture, the hoopoe is a bird often associated with spiritual and symbolic meanings, believed to be a messenger of wisdom and a symbol of transformation. The protea, South Africa's national flower, embodies resilience and diversity, representing the nation's rich heritage and natural beauty. The intricate details of the hoopoe and protea on this vase capture the essence of their symbolism, reflecting the deep connection between the natural world and cultural identity in South Africa.
The craftsmanship of Zimele Ceramics merges artistic tradition with contemporary design, resulting in a piece that is not only visually captivating but also rich in cultural narrative. The Hoopoes and Proteas vase is a beautiful testament to the artistry and cultural reverence that define South African ceramics.
