The allure of Safety Matches initially captivated us with their enigmatic and almost tarot-like compositions. We were fascinated by the intricate interplay between text and ornamental embellishments, which drew inspiration from everyday objects in their advertising. The idea that they employed anything and everything as their advertising material was an entertaining thought and intrigued us. It was this intriguing concept that led us to pursue Safety Matches as our primary inspiration for the forthcoming TC GC Vase series.
FORM- As we ventured into the phase of creating Terracotta vases and incorporating multiple illustrations, we realized the need for forms with multiple flat surface areas. This recollection brought us to Geometric Construction (GC), inspiring the upcoming forms to be shaped by GC principles. Among a series of 3 vases, this hand-built vase stands as the tallest one we have crafted thus far, making it a remarkable addition to the collection in terms of both size and visual impact. Its form has more pronounced angles that lend it a bolder appearance, enhanced with the addition of a collar. The collar not only provided a sense of structure and stability to the vase but also added a refined finishing touch by complementing the overall aesthetic.
IMAGERY- Each vase would feature different safety match images on its sides, while maintaining a consistent theme throughout. This approach ensured that the individual illustrations on each form worked together harmoniously, creating a cohesive and visually captivating collection. By ensuring that the imagery on all sides of the vase was balanced and harmonious, we also maintained visual symmetry. Through the process of multi-color patchwork Sgraffito on terracotta, each illustration comes to life, weaving a narrative that transcends traditional boundaries.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Ceramic is often under-estimated for it's strength and durability. Buying an artisinal ceramic product is a life-long investment. They're fired to a higher temperature than industry-made ceramic and the products made at ceramic-clusters. They're more expensive for many reasons, one of them being the special love and care they receive in their quality.
