About The Artwork

Paper clay vessel in ultra-thin paper clay porcelain and blu glaze. Thin and very light (it has the weight of an egg shell), the outside is smooth with bisque finish, inside is glazed with high temperature glaze. This paper clay bowl is formed by brushing the porcelain in thin layers, covering it in high temperature glazes and then firing it in single-fired to 1250 degrees. Its uniqueness lies in the difficulty of firing so thin thicknesses matched to glaze, which increases the risk of breakage, already very high in this kind of ceramic bowls. The vessel decoration with glaze in small points, which melt during the cooking, creates a particular effect in various tones of blue and reminds the shades of a seashell. The bowl, without any pedestal, naturally finds its balance on the floor. A unique and unrepeatable ornament, a real fine art pottery work, the perfect centerpiece. Diameter about 20 cm. Weight: 0,23 kg (only!) See it also on: http://accessceramics.org/results/artist/508/

M'I lumina is an exclusive Porcelain Paper Clay brand dedicated to contemporary ceramic. M'I lumina came to life at the beginning of 2015, from the eclectic mind of Luciana Grazia Menegazzi. Born in Milan in 1961, she graduated in Architecture in 1988. During her career she has also had experiences as a Teaching Assistant at Politecnico of Milan, and took part in various design competitions. Pottery expert, collector of italian majolicas from the '30s and '40s, design and handmade enthusiastic, she was charmed by paper clay, a modern but ancient material, made of clay and paper cellulose. She experimented with “bone china” porcelain in particular, whose elegance, resistance and transparency she really appreciate. So she created M'I lumina, a Milan-based hand-made brand, whose mission is to create exclusive lamps and furnishings, with an high handcraft content and an absolutely original design. A M'I lumina piece of design is way more than its function or a trend, it is an iconic and evocative creation. The paper clay itself, the use of recycled paper and the organic forms, inspired by the vegetal and animal world, make the M'I lumina creations the protagonists of a refined but eco-friendly idea of interior design.
