PURE ALCHEMY
Made OF Australia's signature series is made with native Australian flora and organics from indigenous fauna (organic materials like snakeskin, emu and crocodile eggshell, and goose feathers etc.). Once vaporized, the naturally occurring oxides and minerals released by the flames fuse with the surface of the clay, creating unique and unrepeatable patterns and markings on the surface of the clay...it's pure alchemy!
HANDMADE IN AUSTRALIA
No two pieces from Made of Australia can ever be the same. While similar and complementary in size and shape, the pattern on each piece will always have its own unique character and markings, as does everything in nature.
