Hand-Painted “Kitty & Bow” Rustic Ceramic Vase

By artist Taomei：This “Kitty & Bow” piece started with a simple idea: make something that feels like a hug for your home—soft, playful, and full of little details that make you smile.
Every vase is shaped by hand on the wheel, from a lump of raw clay. We fire it slow, leave the surface with that slightly rough, earthy texture so it feels warm in your hands, not cold and machine-made. The cat? I drew him freehand, stripes wobbly on purpose, paws curled like he’s napping on a cloud. That blue bow? It’s a little extra, just the kind of silly, sweet touch that makes a room feel like yours.
It’s not perfect, and that’s the point. The lines aren’t straight, the glaze has tiny variations—all the marks of a person holding a brush, not a robot. Stick in some carnations, a few sprigs of greenery, or even leave it empty. It’s the kind of piece that sits on your side table and makes you pause, grin, and think “this is nice.”
We make things for people who love little joys: the cat curled up on the windowsill, the sun through the curtains, a vase that feels like it has a personality. This isn’t just decor—it’s a little piece of care, wrapped in clay and paint, for your everyday.
