5 out of 5 starsBeautiful, just like the picture. I know we will enjoy this piece of art for many years. Arrived fairly fast since it was coming from Ireland to the USA. Packed nice, with no damage during shipment. Thank you Karo for the beautiful piece of art.

5 out of 5 starsWow - no words to explain how amazing these pieces are and how wonderful the seller is! I first saw these years ago while traveling and was thrilled to find them nearly a decade later on Etsy! The seller was a joy to work with and I look forward to adding new pieces to my collection in the future! Pictures truly do not do them justice. They will make a unique and meaningful addition to your home. Huge thanks to the seller who was in constant contact and answered all of my questions! Thank you again for creating something so beautiful!

About karoArt
karoArt 'the clay fable' - modern ceramics with a story to tell
karoArt is a small, Dublin based ceramic studio established in 2009 by Karo who is a self-taught ceramicist, designer and maker.
karoArt stands for beautifully coloured, quirky, whimsical ceramics that are created in a fully handmade process. They are both decorative and functional, because we like the idea of using beautiful, handmade items in everyday life.
All work is made in our studio from start to finish. The ‘perfectly imperfect’ quality of our work tell a story of how each piece is an authentic creation of human hands.
All of our work is inspired by natural wonders, fairy stories and our love of animals.

I find clay to be a perfect medium to express my creativity and make work that's not only pleasing to the eye but also functional. I take inspiration from nature, my interest in fairy-stories and myths, as well as my love of animals.

Additional policies and FAQs
We use only high quality porcelain and stoneware clays. All pieces are high-fired ensuring strength, durability and suitability for daily use. Our tableware is food, dishwasher, microwave and oven safe.
The exceptions are those items made using black clay or being decorated with gold luster, they are not dishwasher and microwave safe.
Black clay pieces and those where gold luster is on the inside of the dish and can react with food are also unsuitable for food use.
When heating up the dishes, please, take care to avoid sudden temperature changes as this may result in thermal shock and cracks may occur.
Unglazed surfaces, although water and stain resistant, are not stain proof. Therefore avoid contact with staining foods like tea, coffee, red wine, beetroot etc and clean with baking soda paste if needed.
CUSTOM ORDERS
We are happy to take on custom orders.
Please allow approximately 4-6 weeks for the piece to be prepared. This may take longer if unforeseen circumstances occur.
Custom orders need to be paid for in advance of commencing work.
