  • Nearly 30 years ago the manager of the gift shop for the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studo asked us to make this vase, modeled after a 1909 Russian vase that was part of his personal collection. With nothing more than a photo Antonio Ziranda beautifully crafted a sample. It was an immediate hit and one of our best selling vases. I archived this vase for a few years and recently asked Antonio to make a small batch, they arrived and are ready for their new homes!

  • Grueby Faience Company was founded in 1894 by William Grueby who was inspired by French pottery matte glazes, particularly the cucumber green that became the company's hallmark, and the refined simplicity of Japanese ceramics. In its heyday Grueby was sold through Tiffany Studios in New York City and Gustav Stickley  incorporated Grueby tiles in his furniture. This beauty measures 12" high and has a subtle, abstracted leaf and pod design in repousse.

  • Antonio created this striking vase for Cobre's 30th anniversary. The fish motif is inspired by "Pescado Blanco" (white fish), a Michoacan delicacy.    Lake Patzcuaro is near Antonio's village and home to Pescado Blanco. The flora and fauna of the lake have been a source of inspiration for centuries to potters, weavers, woodcarvers and of course, coppersmiths!    Antonio's rendition is substantial and bold - copperwork at its best.

  • Working with copper has been a tradition in Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacan since pre-Hispanic times. A few of the workshops in Santa Clara have modernized but Antonio Ziranda is keeping the old tradition alive, as do all the craftsmen that I work with.  Michoacan is an agricultural state filled with pine forests, croplands, and fruit orchards. This indigenous design was inspired by the segments you see in oranges and grapefruits, many of which are grown in the nearby Tierra Caliente (hotlands), not far from Antonio's village.

    Copper California Arts and Crafts-style Vase

    Original price was: $245.00.Current price is: $220.00.
    NEW! Antonio Ziranda has done a beautiful interpretation of a circa 1910 Manual Arts Studio vase. The Manual Arts Studio was located in the backyard of none other than Ernest A. Batcheldor, Pasadena, California. The Studio was part of the distinctive Californa-style Arts and Crafts movement and was a direct pushback against mass industrialization and factory manufacturing, also known as "Hand, Head, and Heart". This philosophy believed that everyday functional objects should also be beautiful, individual pieces of art. This style features bold, simple shapes and included motifs such as floral accents and patterns inspired by plants and nature.
