Handmade ceramic vase

Stoneware is high temperature clay. The objects are fired at 1260 C to 1280 C creating a solid mass of clay, very durable, which has become like stone.

The objects are fired in a gas kiln, where the chamber atmosphere is slightly reducing. The fire and smoke present in the kiln give a unique effect to the final form of the objects.

Stavros Karnakis was born at the end of the 70’s in Athens and as a child he came into contact with clay in the pottery workshop that his mother ran.

Later he builds his first workshop in Perama and from 2010 he also creates a workshop in Ikaria under the brand KEDROI where he now resides permanently.
