This series hurt to make. Literally.

The UNTAMED series is thrown on the wheel using raw black clay packed with coarse stone inclusions. Every session at the wheel drew blood — the stones cut through skin, the clay resisted, the body pushed back. The pieces were finished by hand after throwing, additions built on top of what the wheel started.

That resistance is the whole point.

These are objects shaped by force. By stubbornness. By the refusal to use easier materials or gentler methods. They are unglazed, uncompromising, and built as a tribute to everyone who has kept going when things got hard.

Toughness isn't pretty. But it's real.

Each piece comes with a certificate of authenticity.
