The Pottery Art of Hilde De Bruyn

 

 

When I discovered the beautiful work of the Belgian artist Hilde De Bruyn, I was smitten!!

Already more than forty years Hilde De Bruyn mainly manufactures handmade, solid, functional and decorative objects in stoneware.

Next to the art of turning clay, Hilde is even creating porcelain pottery.

All vases, plates, teapots, tableware etc. stand out through their shape and simplicity.

Hilde took part in several Belgian exhibitions.


Her work is on display and for sale in her own atelier and shop ‘Den Stenen Pot’.

Let us take a look at some of Hilde’s beautiful creations.

Kitchen pottery

If you are like me and you love beautiful kitchen pottery than you will love these inspirational images!

The French Provençal pottery is my favorite! When we are in the south of France, I always love to visit the town Vallauris where you can find beautiful pottery and I never can’t resist buying a few pots, plates or cups!

The long, distinguished heritage of beautiful Provençal ceramics has its roots in the earth. The topography of Provence is richly larded with large deposits of high-quality clay, pink or red mostly, but occasonally white, a natural resource that from time to time of the Roman Empire inspired a vast production of handmade earthenware and faience : pots, vases, pitchers, plates, cups, and all kind of tiles. From the 17th century, ceramics ateliers flourished from the mountains of northern Provence south to the sea. They centered in towns that grew up near the clay deposits :Aubagne,Apt,Moustiers-Sainte-Marie,Dieulefit,Salernes,Varages,Biot,Vallauris, and west across the Rhône in Uzes and Anduze.

If you don’t use the pottery for cooking or baking, you can bring them in as decorative items.

Even the white or creamy pottery looks gorgeous, isn’t it?

A few weeks ago I bought a pot as this one here on the image (brown and yellow colored) which is standing now on my kitchen table.

Look at the color palette used here in this kitchen. Would the colors have been chosen in function of the pottery of vice versa??

I just love this!

What is black,white & green all over?

There are so many parties going on today! I am linking my newest project to Naps on the porch, The girl creative, Cottage instincts, Smiling Sally, Making the world cuter, Silly little sparrow, Sanctuary art  Domestically Speaking and  A soft place to land.

This is the before picture of my home office the day the furniture was delivered.



Here is the after with "Lettuce" paint, craigslist settee recovered, new window treatments and accessorized.






Believe me... it's not normally this organized!

I love the black and white fabric!


Free Chandelier from my son and daughter-in-law. This was removed from their kitchen.


Monogram ordered from Etsy



Valance found on ebay and she made a custom size for me.

I hope you enjoyed the tour of my office and  I would love to hear your comments.

 I almost forgot my post for Blue Monday: at Smiling Sally. These two Italian vases were an anniversary gift from my Hubby. They have special meaning because we were married in Italy. Could I ask for a better husband...absolutely not!





Aren't these just gorgeous?



The photos above the buffet Hubby took on our honeymoon.  Not only totally sweet but also talented!
