Seaweed Ornament · Seaweed Inspired Ceramics · Samara Yandell

New, Limited Edition, Handmade The Seaweed Series is inspired by antique botanical illustrations and the beautiful organic shapes of the seaweed itself. Creating with clay is a multi-sensory, natural experience much like spending the day at the beach. Enjoy your ornament and think of the joy of exploring tide pools, finding treasures in the sand, and floating like the seaweed. Each one is either stamped with the word "rockweed", "float", or "kelp." Each Seaweed Ornament is 4 in in diameter.  Due to the handmade nature, each of the 6 pieces is unique! Samara Yandell is a Portland Maine based ceramic artist and middle school art teacher. Her work is inspired by the natural beauty of her home state of Maine. Samara creates multi-layered surface designs on dark stoneware using hand cut stencils, porcelain slip, underglaze washes, oxides, and high fire translucent glazes. The interplay between the positive / negative space and the depth of the surfaces makes for functional ceramics that are truly unique works of art.
