I've been coveting Manja Goetze's ceramic pieces for a while, having been utterly taken by the gorgeous way her glazes pool at the bottom of her vessels in vivid rich blues; the matte contrast of the brown exterior and bone rim has also always pleased me. This Saturday I walked past the market on a mission, went in, dithered briefly between cups and mugs, then laid down my money: easily the best 15 EUR I've spent for an age, and this morning's tea felt correspondingly ennobled.

Manja shows her work at the Galerie Jeanne Koepp; Koepp's work is also worth checking out.
