Raffaella Molin has loved working with her hands for as long as she can remember – as a child her output was mud, which then developed into fashion design before she found stoneware. She describes her approach as a “mood thing”, letting her emotions of the day sway each piece. Her process is careful and controlled, starting with a tennis ball of black, textured clay which is hand-coiled, dried, bisque-fired and glazed. The results are beautifully unique, with human form-inspired silhouettes guided by her fashion background.

Raffaella Molin’s clay journey began during childhood, as she recalls walking home with her father in Burano with a mud pot and a hand-picked bunch of flowers in tow. As she grew, she explored different mediums for her creativity; she spent five years working alongside glass powerhouse Carlo Moretti in Murano before moving to London to study fashion. Yet, she always found herself drawn back to clay. From her Oxo Tower-based studio, she coils and pinches by hand, letting her emotions of the day – rather than a premeditated sketch – influence the silhouettes. Inspiration is found all around but predominantly stems from the shapes and curves of the human form.
