Discover Hand in Hand, a seasonal ceramic collection celebrating connection, care, and the objects that make a house feel like home. Featuring matching dishware sets, distinctive drinkware, interactive objects, and hand-inspired forms, the collection invites viewers to reflect on relationships with loved ones, with themselves, and with the spaces they cherish. 

Sara Alfieri draws inspiration from architectural linework, bringing structure, pattern, and thoughtful design to her drinkware sets. Her work evokes the feeling of building a home—both literally and figuratively—through pieces meant to be used, shared, and treasured. Cathy Broski’s ceramic hands with hearts offer a tender tribute to worn, well-loved keepsakes, making them meaningful gifts for someone special. 

Inspired by animation, Allyson George’s character cups and magnet hands bring a playful, cartoon-like energy with glove-style hands, rounded shoes, and personalities that seem to interact with their surroundings. In contrast, Stephen Homer offers a minimalist approach with dishware sets, pairing sleek forms with glazes reminiscent of splatter paint. Keok Lim’s imaginative mugs, complete with illustrated surfaces and protruding finger handles, spark curiosity and a sense of childlike wonder. Kacey Ziegler’s ring holders and hand sculptures add elegance and warmth through delicate forms and touches of gold. 

Together, these artists bring a rich range of perspectives to Hand in Hand, highlighting the beauty of connection, generosity, and everyday ritual. From the hands that shaped each piece to the hands that will collect and cherish it, this collection celebrates ceramics as objects of meaning, memory, and shared experience.
