Kelly Wearstler started from a digital graphic pattern, inspired by Bauhaus principles, to design Zuma, her range of porcelain tableware. Each pattern is hand-stamped onto the pieces for a hand-painted look and feel, after which the glaze is applied. The patterns vary and you can easily mix and match the different shapes and colors – white, dark gray, and soft orange which is used as an accent color.
In addition to the Zuma porcelain tableware, Kelly Wearstler created glassware in amber hues that were so widely used in antique and vintage glassware around the world. The unique color progression effect is obtained by using three layers of glass: the amber-colored mass is injected in between two layers of transparent glass. The airy, breezy color contrasts beautifully with the distinctive, thick glass base and the pared-down, straight shape of these tumbler glasses.
