Yesterday morning I got a phone call from my good friend Sema from http://www.floweredsky.blogspot.com. She told me that my Porcelain Purple Vase featured in the Etsy article, it is call Etsy Finds: The Flower of Love. I am honored to be featured amongst great artists! Thank you ETSY!
We survived from another snow storm. Lucky it was on the weekend. I always loved snow but my 11 moth old son did not enjoy staying at home all weekend. He had some experience with his first snow man… hehehe! Here are some pictures to share!
I have been working with the low fire red glaze for about 8 years now. I spend a lot of time and sacrificed a lot of pieces to get the gorgeous red color. Past 2 years I focused on working with a porcelain clay. I have discovered beautiful new high fire glazes.
Although, I love the result of this low fire red glaze but my heart goes for porcelain and still searching to find that perfect high fire red glaze.
We have an amazing Botanical Garden in RI. It is a perfect place to go on a cold winter days. We enjoyed our little trip as a family.

I just took this image and love it! I could smell the coffee just from looking at this picture.
Wow! I cannot believe my last update was on Nov 10th.I have been quite busy for the past month …past year! First of all I had a beautiful baby boy. He totally changed my life…in a good way. I am so happy that I could still do my art and take care of my baby. I have been working on different design and textures. I am hoping to do a textured collection pieces in 2009. I am also in search of special textured glazes.
I am hoping that a New Year will bring a joy, happiness and health to everyone.
Best wishes!
Zahour Jewelry states;
I made my first piece of sterling silver jewelry when I was 15 years old in an amazing jewelry course in High School. I cast a pine cone into sterling silver and turned it into a funky hat pin! From that moment on I was hooked with creating things. I focused a lot on nature and organic pieces. I continued to learn all about casting and silversmithing techniques through high school and college. I made pieces for friends and family. Then I moved abroad and couldn't cast for several years because I didn't have the equipment, but I worked with beads and found materials while I was abroad- rocks from the beaches of Portugal, ceramic chips and garnets from Prague....etc.
When I moved back to New York I immediately enrolled in more courses and learned all about enamelling and goldsmithing. I loved the beautiful colors I could get from combining enamels and made a serious of bright vibrant necklaces that sold like crazy at my office. I finally took the plunge and started a full time business as a jeweler 2 years ago. My work is influenced by nature and space as well as the busy larger than life cities that I've lived in- Pittsburgh, London, and NYC. I like sharp clean lines and bold pieces that get noticed.
I work out of my small NYC apartment- The dining room has been converted into a studio with all my overflowing equipment! I love waking up each morning, getting my coffee, checking my etsy and getting to work!
