Xavier Mañosa - Ceramic Bookstand
The Ceramic Bookstand by Spanish ceramist and designer Xavier Mañosa is a functional sculpture that adds a singular touch to any room. Made with a clay stamp and finished with unique glazing, it transforms from a simple object into a sculpture through its purpose of holding a book. Known for combining modern techniques with traditional craftsmanship, Mañosa reimagines everyday objects with a fresh, creative twist.
I don’t stop glazing the pieces until I find this balance between whatever it is that I'm looking for.

Serban Ionescu - Mutant Hook
The Mutant Hook is a mischievous twist on the ordinariness and functionality of a conventional hook. Made from bent metal sheets, they are designed to evoke mutating shapes that are as unusual as they are gentle. Known for his bold colors and organic forms, Ionescu transforms everyday objects into expressive artworks, merging sculpture, design, and architecture to challenge perceptions of space and function.
I try to stay true to that drawn line.
—Serban Ionescu
Klas Ernflo - Wine Stopper 'Buddy'
The Wine Stopper ‘Buddy’ by Klas Ernflo is a series of bottle stopper heads carved out of beech wood. Practical and full of personality, they challenge their own simplicity with a witty blend of artistry and functionality. Known for his multidisciplinary approach, the Swedish artist is defined by playful abstraction, nature references, and a balance of minimalism with whimsical details.
I like cute, folkloric objects… I like anything that’s a little woodcut!
