miss page *handmade ceramic candlestick*
Miss Page was hand thrown out of a speckled clay that is full of visual and physical texture. Hand thrown, trimmed and handled, Miss Page has been made to add a little bit of light to the world. After being bisque fired, she was glazed in a bright white glaze. The beautiful thing about speckled clay is that the speckling shows through the glaze, adding a subtle texture to a rather simple design. Page is the perfect gift to light up a loved one's day. Miss Page is named after my 3rd great grandmother. Just this last year, we finally found out who her parents are thanks to the beauty of DNA. Both of her parents died before she was 15 but she went on to love and raise 9 children. Each item in my shop is made by hand with all of my attention, love and care.
