INI CERAMIQUE Ceramic Studio - Q&A

What are your INI CERAMIQUE’s inspirations? 
As a graduate of Beaux-Arts in Montpellier, I am essentially influenced by contemporary and classic art, traditional craftmanship and the beautiful complexity of nature. I then seek to build a bridge connecting these disciplines and the conception of my collections, aiming to offer simple design in my ceramics and pottery.

What type of products do you make? 
My work is centered around the creation of decorative pieces. I like to play with the functionality of the object and its materialization, whether in terms of texture or form. While my current collection includes a series of handmade minimal flower vases, I am currently developing a tableware line, such as teapots, bowls and plates that I hope will find their place in any interior design. 

What is the production time for INI CERAMIQUE? Do you have any items currently in stock?
All of my products are made on demand, meaning I will begin producing your vase once the order is placed. I kindly ask you to allow 30 days for the process. This is the time needed to start and complete the handmade production in our studio in Burgundy, France, before the vase is ready to be shipped to your destination.

Are you sensitive to ethical and environmental issues and how do you apply it to your creations? 
My products are entirely handmade according to an craftmanship process which imposes an acceptance of time and its effects. In an uncertain period marked by the frantic pace of information and sometimes irresponsible consumption, I embrace the slowing down of the production process and hope to share these values with my customers. 

Do you have a favorite material? If yes which ? 
Attentive to provide a sustainable offer, I only use high quality stoneware which natural features ensure more durable and resistant items. We also prefer chamotte clay for the natural raw texture it offers after firing. This is, for instance, why I leave the outside of my creations raw and only glaze the inside of my vases.
