Maria Stone, "Tree Cup"

4.25" x 2.75", ceramic

Maria Stone is a Richmond-based artist focused on creating functional and decorative ceramic wares. Instead of throwing pottery on a wheel, her work is created using rolled slabs of clay or by pinching and molding by hand. Maria adorns each piece with intricate free-hand illustrations and carvings. These slow and intentional handbuilding and decorating techniques give each piece a whimsical—and one of a kind—character.
