You might wonder...

Yes! All vases are waterproof and you can create lovely flowers bouquets!

I use underglaze and oxydes. They are special coloring process for ceramics which are applied before the item is being fired, which means it will not come off.

I use stoneware because I like its durability and quality. It also allows me to fire my pieces at high temperature in order to offer resistant products.

Harmony in Clay: The Artistic Fusion of Nature, Tradition, and Contemporary Design

Inhee Ma is essentially influenced by contemporary and classic art, traditional craftsmanship and the beautiful complexity of nature. She then seeks to build a bridge connecting these disciplines and the conception of her collections, aiming to offer simple design in my ceramics and pottery.
Her work is centered around the creation of decorative pieces. She likes to play with the functionality of the object and its materialization, whether in terms of texture or form.
Creating a piece is a long process which requires patience and commitment. Inhee uses the slab technic to create her objects and then lets them dry for few days, before sanding them hand, in order to showcase the beautiful texture of the chamotte stoneware. After dusting them off, she then illustrates some of them by applying unique underglaze patterns. They are finally fired twice to assure more durability and quality.
