Stoneware piece handmade by Motoko Saigo in Paris.
Motoko Saigo is a Japanese ceramicist who lives and works in Paris. After studying design in Japan, Motoko moved to Paris where she trained in various pottery techniques with a Japanese ceramicist. In her small attic studio, she creates functional pieces on the wheel, primarily using stoneware and semi-porcelain, which she then refines by hand to thin the form and optimize the curve. Her light and airy forms showcase a great harmony and variety of colors, which she creates herself by making her own glazes.
