Handcrafted Venus statue made of clay – refined through smoke firing, representing matriarchy and fertility, ideal as a gift for expectant parents.

This beautiful sculpture, measuring 13.5x10 cm and weighing 800g, will arrive safely packaged.
This intricately crafted Venus statue, masterfully sculpted from clay and finished through traditional smoke firing, pays homage to the ancient symbols of matriarchy and fertility. In its understated elegance and powerful presence, it aptly captures the essence of the Venus figure – an embodiment of feminine strength, sensuality, and life-giving power. Each statue is individually handcrafted, ensuring that no two are alike, making each one a unique work of art. Perfect as a spiritual symbol, decorative artifact, or special gift, it unites history and craftsmanship.
My clay sculptures and jewelry pendants are less replicas of excavated treasures than my own intuitive interpretations. I allow the creation of each piece to unfold naturally, always inspired by my knowledge of the Neo- and Paleolithic periods, as well as by my extended stay in mystical England many years ago.

Each of my manufactured pieces is 100% made by my own hands, without the use of molds, stencils, etc., and is therefore unique, which is further enhanced by the random coloring during the firing process in the fire.
My works are not glazed but receive their silky matte sheen through polishing with agate before firing, which enhances their beauty from within.
Working with clay and then firing the pieces in fire grounds me considerably - I would be very happy to share this feeling with anyone interested in my pieces.

I am happy to implement commissioned work or my own ideas for a specific piece of work, provided it is compatible with my way of working.
Feel free to contact me about this.
