Bird bowl, US$58.
Just look at these deliciously milky-glossy glazes and vintage-inspired pieces at Whitney Smith Pottery’s Etsy shop. At first I noticed the tiny hand-sculpted bird and flower details before discovering wonderful pops of cherry red on a bud vase and the most delicate petal pink on a gorgeously feminine cake stand.
I actually found the San Francisco Bay-based ceramicist’s shop through Sarey Poppins’ Etsy favourites (always a good way to unearth new gems). According to her profile, Whitney is influenced by her “obsession with flowers and other forms in nature” and “tries to emulate the craftsmanship of an earlier time.
You can find all of her wares at her Etsy shop here.
I've had them on my favourites for months now ! I so LOVE the bowl with the little birds on them...
The colour is amazing too ...
Thanks for sharing this with us !

I love the cake stands and the bowl. So simple and elegant at the same time.

The only thing that could improve that pink cake plate is a big homemade double chocolate cake.
Lovely stuff, what a great gift for someone too.

I like how the bud vase looks like a pomegranate. xx
