Handmade ceramics by Hélène Maury in her workshop in the Lot.

Hélène handcrafts small batches of pieces in her home-studio, nestled among the fields of the Lot region. She shapes her ceramics freely and spontaneously. Her inspirations include: simplicity, raw materials, the beauty of imperfection, color, and the wild nature surrounding her.
All her pottery is made from stoneware, and she creates her glazes in-house, carefully using only natural, non-toxic materials. Mineral powders, wood ash, and a few natural oxides. Her impact on the environment and the effects of production on the health of our planet and the artisan are important to Hélène. Her ceramics are designed and shaped by hand, currently primarily using the slow, ancestral techniques of modeling.
