The language of stoneware: vessels with quiet power
Stoneware rewards patience. It records every subtle gesture — the draw of a rib, the press of a palm, the measured cut of a foot. In the hands of Kiril Georgiev and Elina Zabeta, these gestures become a vocabulary of restraint. Their vessels are neither fussy nor minimal for minimalism’s sake; they are simply resolved. Each piece is balanced in profile, grounded in weight, and designed to catch light on softly faceted curves.
Begin with Vessel #1 (470.00), a refined study in proportion. Its silhouette invites contemplation from any angle — the kind of form that anchors a console or solitary niche. Pair it with Vessel #2 (470.00), where a whisper of asymmetry reads as a designer’s signature, not an accident. Together, they create a quiet dialogue of line and mass.
For a trio with more visual tempo, consider Vessel #3 (470.00). Its slightly more pronounced shoulder adds rhythm when staged beside the taller, slender Vessel #4 (402.00). The subtle price distinctions reflect variation in complexity and scale — what connoisseurs of handmade work immediately recognize as the nuance of a studio practice.
If you crave the intimacy of smaller hand-thrown forms, Vessel #5 (402.00) invites closer viewing: a tactile landscape that rewards living with the piece, not just looking at it. We love it near a reading chair or on a nightstand, where low light traces its contours.
The duo’s approachable mid-size works include Vessel #6 (369.00) and Vessel #7 (369.00). These are effortlessly collectible — ideal for building a thoughtful grouping over time. Their presence is sculptural enough for a curated shelf, yet calm enough to sit beside books and framed photographs without shouting.
To complete the set, Vessel #8 (336.00) brings a pleasing counterpoint, often read as a grounding note when arranged with taller pieces. The more accessible price makes it a meaningful gift for new collectors or a savvy way to introduce the artists’ work into a room.
What unites these vessels is a clarity of intent. The surfaces are delicately worked, the forms are made to be felt, and the overall effect is architectural serenity. This is Kiril Georgiev and Elina Zabeta pottery at its most emblematic: quiet, powerful, and deeply human.
Objects for daily rituals: a plate and a cup that feel like keepsakes
Lived-in luxury is about the objects you reach for every day. In that spirit, Plate #1 (300.00) and Cup #1 (216.00) speak to the pleasures of the hand. The plate’s gentle rim creates a soft halo, ideal for a single piece of fruit, a minimal ikebana arrangement, or a small bite shared on a coffee table. Use it as a pedestal to frame everyday moments.
Cup #1 carries the same language of touch. The subtle indentations suggest the hands that formed it — a reminder that beauty can be as simple as the weight of clay balanced against your palms. Whether used for morning tea or as a desk-side vessel for pencils and brushes, this cup lends warmth to practical routines.
Together, these pieces extend the Georgiev and Zabeta ethos from display to daily life: refined, understated, and enduring. They make an elegant introduction for those wishing to buy Kiril Georgiev and Elina Zabeta without waiting for a large sculptural work.
The statement: Two Lovers Vase
Some works feel like chapters pulled from a longer story. Two Lovers Vase (918.00) is one of them. Its embrace of form suggests two figures leaning toward one another — not literally, but in spirit. It is poetic without being sentimental, and it anchors a room with quiet magnetism.
Place the Two Lovers Vase on a dining table with nothing inside it; let the piece be the arrangement. Or stage it on a sideboard beneath a framed drawing for a gallery-like moment at home. We often recommend pairing it with a smaller vessel from the series — for instance, Vessel #6 or Vessel #8 — to subtly heighten the relational theme.
Collectors drawn to the narrative dimension of the artists’ practice consistently gravitate to the Two Lovers Vase. It is a defining work in the Kiril Georgiev and Elina Zabeta collection, and a compelling answer for anyone searching for a singular centerpiece by this artist duo.
Light, steel, and glass: the architecture of atmosphere
What happens when a ceramic sensibility meets metal and light? The results are striking. Georgiev and Zabeta’s lighting works carry the same restraint as their stoneware, but the material shift adds a crisp, architectural counterpoint. Stainless steel provides precision; glass delivers luminous depth.
The pendant series begins with the warmly toned Medium Amber Pendant (1004.00). Its softly hued glow lends intimacy above a kitchen island or dining table, bringing ambience without visual clutter. For a more crystalline presence, the Clear Pendant (924.00) reveals structure and shadow play, offering clarity that pairs beautifully with the duo’s darker ceramics.
For grander volumes or double-height entries, the Large Pendant (1542.00) reads like a floating sculpture. We love it centered over a round dining table or as a single, confident gesture in a stairwell. The pricing reflects not only scale, but also the careful proportioning that gives the piece its calm authority. If you are assembling an edited group of fixtures by a single artist, this pendant is a worthy cornerstone.
The stainless steel series translates the duo’s sculptural logic into light that feels tailored yet soulful. The Stainless Steel Desk Lamp (822.00) provides a focused pool of light — a companion for reading nooks and writing desks where atmosphere matters as much as illumination. Architecturally minded collectors often pair this lamp with a single stoneware vessel, creating a vignette that toggles between soft clay and cool metal.
Suspended forms bring a sense of weightlessness. The Stainless Steel Hanging Light (669.00) is an elegant answer for corners that crave attention without clutter. It’s superb over a small bistro table, or staged in multiples along a hallway for a gallery-like rhythm.
On the wall, the Stainless Steel Wall Light Fixture (1453.00) becomes both sculpture and practical lighting. Install a pair flanking a fireplace or an art piece to gently frame the focal point. The price is a testament to the complexity of the form and the level of finish — a design investment that ages gracefully.
For rooms that benefit from a grounded, vertical gesture, the Stainless Steel Floor Lamp (1294.00) brings a measured presence. It stands with the same calm confidence as the duo’s stoneware, pulling light upward like a column in a quiet temple. Place it beside a sofa with two vessels of differing heights on the adjacent console to complete the scene.
To bridge metal and clay, consider adding the elegant Glass Vase (483.00). It reads as a pool of light even when unlit, echoing the translucency of the pendants. A single branch or plume of grass is all it needs. As with the stoneware, the glasswork resists fuss — the form does the talking.
How to style a collection with intention
One of the pleasures of living with Kiril Georgiev and Elina Zabeta is how effortlessly their works converse across materials. To begin curating your own grouping, think in triads: three forms, three heights, three surface qualities. A possible composition might include Vessel #1 for a clean vertical, Vessel #5 as a mid-height anchor, and Vessel #8 as a low, grounding note. Add the Glass Vase nearby to introduce light-catching contrast.
For dining areas, let a pendant define the mood and a single sculptural piece hold court. The Medium Amber Pendant casts a gentle, intimate glow; beneath it, place the Two Lovers Vase as a centerpiece. On a sideboard, echo the curves with Vessel #3 and Vessel #6 for a measured rhythm.
At workspaces, keep the palette refined: the Stainless Steel Desk Lamp, a single Cup #1 for pens, and Plate #1 to stage small notes or a favorite stone. The effect is disciplined but warm, helping you move through tasks with quiet focus.
If you lean toward maximal storytelling, build a narrative arc. Start with Vessel #2 as a clean keynote, add Vessel #4 for contrast, and close with the luminous counterpoint of the Clear Pendant nearby. You’ve created a sequence that travels from earth to light with intention.
Meet the makers: presence over ornament
The best way to understand Kiril Georgiev and Elina Zabeta is to study the edges. In their stoneware, edges are softened to invite touch; in their lighting, edges are refined to sharpen silhouette; in their glass, edges melt into light. That restraint is the throughline: a belief that presence is more powerful than ornament, and that a form, once resolved, should feel inevitable.
Collectors seeking an artist-led approach to the home often begin with one piece and grow gradually across categories. Start with clay — a vessel that holds space on its own — and then extend the vocabulary through light and glass until the room speaks in a unified tone. This is the heart of the Kiril Georgiev and Elina Zabeta artist practice: a material conversation designed to unfold across your rooms.
