From the series Heroes, this is Bert. For fun but also as an excercise, I made this series of vases in my own style after the potters that inspired me. Bert Nienhuis is one of these decorators. The deco on this vase is sgraffito in white slip on a black stoneware body. Small pieces of gold leave. Bronze rim ofcourse.
clay: black stoneware
glazes: transparant on the inside and none on the outside.

I am an artisan potter based in Amsterdam. I create ceramic pieces I love and share them with you. I focus on making vases, bowls, and pots. If you’d like something custom-made, just ask—I can craft one especially for you or your loved ones (dead or alive). My work is sometimes dark and quirky, even wonky if that’s your style. I’m not overly concerned with traditional perfection.
I strive to create useful and beautiful pieces. Even without flowers, brushes, or branches, my vases can stand alone as beautiful objects. They are tough—but please, don’t throw them at people. All of my shapes and glazes are homebrewed, made right here in what I call Mokum.
