Orange Jar

This slender jar stands out for its orange decoration on a white background, consisting of lines that follow the neck and then unfold into geometric patterns along its curves. Colored threads and small beads punctuate its silhouette, creating a contrast between the ceramic surface and the suppleness of the fabric. Hand-shaped and hand-decorated, every line reveals the movement of the artist’s hand.

In Anna Westerlund’s studio in Lisbon, ceramics take shape like a landscape. Founded in 2013, the studio is a place where drawing and painting converge, where the hand embraces the unexpected, and where each piece finds its form through a slow search for balance. Here, mistakes are never erased: they become texture, relief, and uniqueness.

Whether placed on a shelf, a console table, or in the center of a table, this jar can stand alone or hold a few dried stems. Its elongated shape and orange hues add a touch of color without weighing down the arrangement.
