On Saturday, please join us at A+R Venice for a very special trunk show with internationally celebrated ceramicist Maria White Mebane.
Her work is featured prominently in the new book featuring some of the biggest design stars around the world, Nature: Inspiration for Art & Design, published by Barcelona's Monsa. And her organically formed tea light jars flicker on every table at Jar restaurant in Los Angeles.

Since Andy and I first spotted her hand-carved porcelain pots, we’ve been smitten with Maria’s work. The Hollywood ceramicist (by way of South Carolina—she hasn’t lost her twang) is as motivated by the organic forms of an insect wing, a water ripple or a sand dollar, as how light interacts and effects the details on these surfaces.
She studied sculpture in Italy and at the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts in Maine, and her pots have received top placement from the American Ceramic Society and other craft guilds. She handles each piece pot, bottle, jar and pendant individually, which might be why we can’t keep our hands off of her work.
Maria is bringing an expanded collection of pots, large and tiny, as well as a new range of porcelain jewelry.
The trunk show runs 11 a.m.- 7 p.m. at A+R, 1121 Abbot Kinney (between Westminster and San Juan).
See you there!

snapshot of the moment
Mathieu Lehanneur is inspired by interactions between nature and the human body. In fact, he says his favorite word is "human," in a "chemical and alchemical sense." This sculptural post was presumably a coat hanger. But those pretty well be some fantastic coats hanging off this piece.
