Clayful: The big world of tiny ceramics

by Sophia Cai

A tiny book that showcases some of the world’s tiniest ceramics.

Often no taller than one inch, miniature ceramics are much smaller than the hands that craft them. Perfectly formed, these minuscule pottery pieces can only hold a small sprig of tiny flowers at most, but they contain all the talent of larger works.

Clayful showcases 32 international ceramicists whose miniature vessels invite you to lean in and marvel. With precise craftsmanship, these artists transform clay into joyful interpretations of classic forms and techniques, shrunk down to fit in the palm of your hand.

This little book is an absolute delight - the size is perfect to represent the miniature creations inside; all beautifully photographed with a good amount of information about each ceramic artist!

Highly recommend to fellow potters looking for inspiration for making mini, fans of little crafts and people who could never let go of their childhood doll houses!
