SCULPTURAL TABLEWARE, HAND-CARVED CERAMICS & RITUAL VESSELS
Curator’s NoteWhat first drew us to HandS Ceramics is the feeling that the collection was almost "unearthed," with its stone-like appearance, uneven edges, and carved surfaces. Dinner plates are stacked in irregular layers, square kiddush cups sit on chunky pedestals, and serving dishes look as though they've been carved from white stone. Then there are the bold cobalt-blue brushstrokes on cups and tumblers, fennel-shaped menorahs, and ceramic postcards featuring images from the National Library archives. It all adds up to a playful, daring, and eccentric collection.
HandS was selected for the index because of its whimsical take on everyday ceramics and Jewish ritual objects. The pieces have a distinctly handmade character, and even the simplest items, like a small honey dish for Rosh Hashanah or a set of drinking cups, have a way of taking center stage.
