About Liselore the creator.

Liselore completed the Dutch Ceramics course in 2011. From 1996 she attended the Dutch Design Academy and the High Hotel School, during which she did internships in China (Xian) and Thailand (Bangkok). This is where her passion for Asian ceramics and aesthetics was born. And her love for the Chinese and Japanese tea ceremony. And last but not least her love for Robert, whom she met during her internship in Bangkok. meanwhile there are two beautiful daughters: Anna and Eline.

As a toddler, Liselore's parents left her at preschool at the clay corner and picked her up there as well. It just took her a while to discover the spinning wheel. A great passion of hers was cooking, but after working as a professional cook for several years, she found that she enjoyed making pots more than stirring them. When she first sat down behind the turntable it was love at first sight and she never left it. 

Liselore's specialty is that she turns her work incredibly thin. From her design background, this is the answer to thinly cast work, which you see more often than thinly turned ceramics. That turning always leaves the hand of the maker in the piece appeals to her more than tight castings. The imperfection emotes her more. Something she also finds in the wabi-sabi tradition from Japan. The high technical skill that must be in your fingers to turn this work makes it never boring. She tries to push the boundaries with each piece in how the clay stretches further. 

Glazes are her other passion. Where Liselore first composed glazes from beauty, she now tries to put more and more story into the glazes, which gives the works extra layers. She gets her inspiration from far and near: the famous Haarlem skies for the Hemisphere signatures and the Japanese tradition supplemented with Dutch finds for the Diffluence collection. Her own life experience always provides new perspectives making it a journey of discovery that never ends.
