The collection by ceramicist and interior designer Ann Van Beersel for Artisann is a collection in which the turntable is an important tool. My collection radiates with imperfection and each mug is different handmade and finished with care.

The "White Dunes" collection is made of naturel clay and is glazed by brush with a slightly glossy white pure glaze. Finished on the outside with drops of glaze to accentuate the running effect and irregularity.

My work is labeled with the shaped “a” of artisann and is patented.

Ceramics by Ann Van Beersel stands for functionality, beautiful high-quality objects that can be used every day with imperfection as a common thread in my design. The different collections add authenticity to the decorated table and can be endlessly combined into a breakfast set or a complete dinner service.

Making process

• The mug is turned with 400gr clay
• The ear is shaped and assembled by hand
• Is turned off at the bottom with the appropriate instruments on the turntable
• Let it dry for one week to make sure the cup is dry
• A biscuit bake in a 950° oven which lasts at least one day and a half
• Is glazed by hand and brush
• Is fired in a glaze kiln at 1250° and lasts two days.

The high bucket is possible because the clay is stoneware clay and can withstand this high temperature. I have also specially designed the glaze recipe for a baking of 1250° and it is unique. This baking and making process determines that the “White Dunes” collection has a high quality, so that pieces jumping, cracking, ... are virtually nil.

Easy to maintain, dishwasher safe and high temperature resistant.
