Choose either green, white, or raw rim of this beautiful unique hand built stoneware heart created to give additional funds to Haiti Scholars. Each heart is glazed by hand with small brushes to bring out the detail in pattern and texture. Each piece will vary slightly. A picture wire is attached to the back for easy hanging (two small nails are recommended). The hearts look wonderful in a grouping inside the home or outside on a front porch or garden shed. Bring indoors when temperatures are lower than 35 degrees. All glazes are food safe, and hand washing is recommended.
Laurie Pollpeter Eskenazi has worked with clay for over 25 years. As a little girl, she was fascinated with the items found on and in her Grandmother’s dresser. It was filled with old button boxes, crazy quilts, and hand tatted lace. Laurie’s pottery is inspired by the traditional needle crafts made by women in the 19th and early 20th century. She strives for a non-manicured organic look, by layering impressions taken from vintage lace, buttons, and hand made stamps. Influenced by the colors and textures found in her travels throughout France, Italy, Spain and the rural Midwest, her pallet is lush and vibrant.
Approximate Dimensions: 7″ H x 6″ W x 1″ D
