Inspired by the idea of transforming a traditional vessel into something unexpectedly thin and paper-like, Joy developed the collection through an extensive process of sketching silhouettes, hand-cutting cardstock patterns, and creating miniature ceramic studies before settling on each final form.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEach vase is individually constructed from slabs of rolled speckled stoneware, carefully draped over hand-sculpted hump molds. Once partially dried, the delicate side seams and base are joined by hand before the piece is bisque fired and brushed with matte glazes, enhancing the playful optical illusion of a two-dimensional form.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoth artful and functional, the vases are designed to hold water and flowers. Their beautifully narrow openings naturally fan out stems and blooms, turning even a simple arrangement into a sculptural display. No two are exactly alike, celebrating the artistry and hand-built nature behind every piece.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEARTHENjoy\u003c\/strong\u003e was founded in 2013 by Omaha clay artist Joy O’Conner, whose love of clay began in childhood and was later nurtured by her mother-in-law, a potter of more than 40 years.
