Xenia Taler Nude Tiles

Under the capable hands of this Toronto native, ceramic tiles become bona fide art. Xenia Taler and her partner Steven Koblinsky craft square and circular tiles out of clay, mix vibrant glazes from scratch, and hand-paint each one with a simple yet gorgeous image — from birds and nudes to graphic dots and stripes.
This modern nude tile is reminiscent of earlier masterworks. A sketched line drawing with the crackle back drop, simple and beautiful. This tile can be displayed anywhere, pair it with another or let it stand alone. Either way it is sure to get noticed.
Every tile is entirely hand painted. Because each tile is individually handmade, appearance, variations in shade and color are inherent. Each comes equipped for wall hanging and has cork on the bottom so they can double as trivets. Comes with an artist’s biography, adding to its unique quality if giving this tile as a gift. see the rest of Xenia Taler's collection. This tile is a limited edition, once our stock is gone it will be no longer available. Handmade in Canada. Shop Xenia Taler Nudes on Arthousegifts.com .

Ceramic Goddess Handcrafted by Harry Leaf













Ceramic Goddess Handcrafted by Harry Leaf

This unique and spirited goddess is hand crafted in California by ceramic artist Harry Leaf. The colorful figurines are adorned with celebratory headdresses and flowing robes.
This particular goddess figure has a textured bright orange body with an olive colored headdress and olive tone, leaf shaped, serving bowl. The reaction between the Raku process and the glazes can change the expression on the goddesses' faces giving life and individuality to the finished figures. Since each piece is individually handmade, variation in color, size and design occurs and is considered part of the charm of handmade Raku sculptures. Each goddess is completely one of a kind and comes with Harry Leaf’s artist story. Shop for more unique gifts at www.arthousegifts.com .
