IRON HORSE TEA SET
Obsidian black ceramic with a mixture of matte and gloss and a wide, circular loop handle like the bridle of a plains mustang, the Iron Horse Tea Set is a rustic statement with a boutique urbanite flair. Its composition recalls cast iron struts and open country road.
Made with cups for either two or four people, Anna Karountzou’s artistic work appends sentiment to practicality, as in a half-remembered childhood memory spent warm by the winter fireside.
This set pairs well with bright, snowy tones and a loving conversation.
Athens-based ceramicist Anna Karountzou blends raw elegance with traditional craftsmanship. With a background in the conservation of artworks and antiquities, Anna brings an understanding of materials to moulding and handling clay. With absolute discipline and focus on detail, she creates her own glazes favouring the tactile and functional aspects of the craft. Her one-of-a-kind, hand-thrown pieces draw inspiration from places she feels connected to, and pay homage to the natural world with a contemporary feel.
Inspired by nature, Anna is obsessed with the marks of time, evidently present in the essence of corrosion that her ceramics exude, seeking the nostalgia of the old. Formed by traditional hand-building techniques such as the coiling method, her works are each made by hand, and constitute entirely bespoke pieces where no one is the same. All pots have been fired at a high temperature to ensure their durability.
Lorem ipsum, or lipsum as it is sometimes known, is dummy text used in laying out print, graphic or web designs. The passage is attributed to an unknown typesetter in the 15th century who is thought to have scrambled parts of Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum for use in a type specimen book.
