Giove — Sculptural Vessel (Unique Piece)

Hand-built terracotta sculptural vessel by Valentina Cojocaru.

A quiet object shaped by earth, touch and time.

Part of the Giove collection, this sculptural vessel celebrates the essential beauty of natural clay. Reduced to its purest expression, its generous rounded volume recalls ancient storage vessels softened by centuries of use, while its gently compressed opening introduces a subtle asymmetry that makes the form feel alive.

Entirely hand-built through the traditional coiling technique, the vessel is patiently shaped, refined and finished entirely by hand. Made from natural red earthenware, the surface is left raw and unglazed, allowing the clay to preserve its warm mineral tones and soft tactile quality. Delicate pale mineral traces naturally emerge across the surface, revealing subtle variations within the material itself rather than decorative intervention.

Its quiet presence invites close observation. Every curve reflects the slow rhythm of making, where small gestures accumulate into a timeless form that feels both contemporary and deeply ancestral.

A sculptural object designed to bring calm and material presence into contemporary interiors.

A unique piece. Hand signed by the artist.

Suitable as a sculptural vessel for dried arrangements or as a standalone artwork. Not watertight.
