food, design and wine fair

the thought / foundation for the Ceramic Matters stand were:

• the ritual of eating • the ritual of celebration • the sense of occasion •
• design • fantasy • Christmas • gifts • food •

• a little fun • a little social comment •

Alice "I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir,
because I'm not myself you see".



~ "one for you and two for me" bowl . . . ~

~ ceramic "boot vase" . . . a patron at the fair (with glass of wine in hand)

Alice "It would be so nice if something made sense for a change".
