candle holder

DIA100xH140mm, Hong Kong

The joint venture with Soil and Cobo is still on till the end of the month, if you are interested in contemporary pottery come and take a look!

For me, these candle shades are like a father and son having a conversation with each other.

These candle shades are unglazed white stoneware, wheel thrown and then distorted, they are then carefully hand carved to get the openings for light.

Everytime I see this box it just brings a smile across my face.  It just made me think of a happy oyster.  It will make a brilliant place for storing all the little treasure that would become pearls over time.

Continuing with the Something Old Something New theme and our collaboration with Soil, we now have another venture:

Cobo X Soil X Mountain Folkcraft
“Throw A Party!”

A selection of pottery works produced from the studio (Chris, King + the students) will be available at Mountain Folkcraft.  All the works are handmade and unique.

Cobo Ceramic Workshop is a pottery workshop founded in 1995 by Chris Lo, together with King Fung regular classes are held as well as commissioned work for corporation and individual clients.
This is the workshop I attend my classes and personally I think it is the perfect place to learn pottery, love it!
