High-fire stoneware ceramics — wheel-thrown and hand-sculpted pieces

Welcome to the world of Les Terres d’Alice.

Each piece is shaped on the potter’s wheel and then hand-sculpted in my studio. I work with stoneware and fire at high temperatures of 1250°C, ensuring strength, durability, and deep, rich glazes.

You will not find standardized objects here. Every creation is unique.

Unique pieces, shaped by hand

The process begins at the wheel: centering, pulling up, and balancing the forms.

Once the clay has hardened, I rework each piece by hand: textures, reliefs, and sculpted lines.

This handwork gives each object its own character. Variations are an integral part of the piece’s beauty.

The choice of high-fire stoneware (1250°C)

High-temperature firing provides:

• Exceptional strength

• Low porosity

• Food-safe compatibility

• Deep, nuanced glazes

Fire transforms the material and reveals unique effects. Two pieces from the same series will never be perfectly identical.

⸻

For everyday use or decoration

My creations are designed to be:

• Used every day

• Given as exceptional gifts

• Incorporated into contemporary or natural interiors

Each object combines aesthetics and functionality.
