As Luk would have it

Brooklyn-based ceramics artist May Luk creates wonderful, wonderful stuff. Her designs are playful, her color-schemes timeless. And I love the combination of antique-y looking illustrations with function. (I don't know about you, but if something doesn't have a use it my teeny-tiny house, there's just no space for it!)

I learned about May Luk at the The Market at The (OA) Can Factory. It's a bi-weekly craft fair in Brooklyn, where Meow Meow Tweet was also on hand selling soaps!

Not in NYC? May Luk is on Etsy and Poppytalk Handmade Marketplace. Check out her gorgeous goods there.

Bowled over

Karen Ford is a Chinese-American artist who says she “found her roots in clay.” She creates functional porcelain and glass art out of her Westport, Conn. studio.

I’m a fan of these pretty white bowls. I’m pretty sure the pale white coloring is just begging to hug a crisp green garden salad.
