egg holder footed cup in warm earth by linda bredenbekk

Linda Bredenbekk is a self-taught ceramic artist who lives in Jæren, Norway. She shared with us that she finds magic in enjoying a cup of coffee sipped from a unique, handmade cup. Linda values the individuality of each of these handmade products, whom they speak to and where they go. Linda loves animals, music, art and food and she appreciates minimalism -- a theme also present in the clean lines of her work. She prefers deep conversations over small talk and she notices the ambiance more than the physical things. It is her intuition that has guided her onto this path of working with clay, and the itch in her fingers to be touching, reshaping it. Isn't that beautiful?

This is such an exciting piece that immediately reminded me of egg-holders I used to see at my grandparents' neighbor's place (in various colors - those were porcelain) during my childhood. It brought back memories. Use it for those boiled eggs, or for tiny hands to drink with, or simply for yourself to enjoy a warm sip.

Since each piece is individually handmade, measurements may vary. Each piece is unique and can differ in size and shape, and the colors of the glaze can vary from piece to piece.
