This deep blue cobalt is a very unique way of painting porcelain! Today, there are not that many artists and factories that use this type of porcelain décor technology in home décor. It has become quite expensive and time-consuming. This makes said porcelain pieces unique & hard to find in regular houseware stores. The shiny, dark blue glaze is used to cover the pieces, after which an artist applies a thin, gold, graphic design element atop the porcelain and a special white overglaze paint, which blends the textures and inverts the colors of the glorious masterpiece. The chemical reactions of the paints and the glaze create an elegant dance of subtle wintery colors atop each piece. Photographs simply don’t do it enough justice! The richness of the paints and the elegance of each piece is felt when you hold it in your hands! 

The Gzhel style of design is widely known around the world, but it all originates in a small town of the same name on the outskirts of Russia. Here, for many years craftsmen of their trade have been passing on the Gzhel porcelain making secrets to younger generations of artists.
