Temporal Harmony

Handcrafted in Urbino, Italy, this sculptural piece unites Saggar-fired ceramic spheres with a solid iron base. Each bowl is shaped using a plaster mould, then refined with Terra Sigillata to achieve a smooth, satin surface. During firing, the pieces are enclosed inside a saggar with organic materials such as leaves and oxides, while copper wire is added to encourage subtle colour reactions. Smoke and heat imprint soft ivory tones, warm browns, and pale blue accents — no glaze is applied, as every mark is created naturally by the fire.

The clean geometry of iron contrasts with the organic ceramic surfaces, creating a quiet balance between structure and movement. From every angle, new variations in tone and pattern reveal themselves, inviting slow observation.

A one-of-a-kind sculpture where earth, metal, and flame coexist in harmony.
