Alice by Rachel Boxnboim. Israeli designer Rachel Boxnboim has cast a ceramic tea service inside fabric moulds. Called Alice, the pieces retain the texture and seams of the fabric from which they were formed. Boxnboim pours the liquid clay into stitched moulds and gradually syringes it out again, leaving a thick layer clinging to the inside of the fabric. The cloth burns away when fired, leaving the delicate ceramic vessels behind. Boxnboim developed the process while studying at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem.

Photographs are by Oded Antman. Here are some more details from the designer: My work started with my decision to saw a kettle. In this project I made a connection between a soft material (fabric) and a hard material (ceramic), perpetuating and preserving the properties of the fabric. The utensils are useful and contain an element of surprise. Materials and technique: porcelain; sewing and casting. LES PETITS BOHEMES — Home. Good Threads | HandEye. W ith ten years of high standards, beautiful clothes, and ethical ideas. Founder Natalie Chanin, founder of Alabama Chanin speaks with HAND/EYE about ten years of life and work, and her company’s US-based, handmade methods. In a characteristically generous way, Natalie Chanin sat down with HAND/EYE Editor Keith Recker for a 90 minute interview…in spite of the fact that she was in the midst of completing her presentation for the 2009 Vogue Fashion Fund, where her company Alabama Chanin is one of ten finalists.

She was also preparing for New York Fashion Week in September. And ordering her grandmother’s birthday cake for a family get together later in the day. Charging back and forth across the professional/personal divide is a familiar topic, but few do it so well in the fashion world, not to mention at such a high level of innovation and socio-environmental standards. We tried to distill ten years of fashion achievement and personal conviction into a few hundred words. Draga Obradovic. Deshabillée C'est le courage qui compte! Il coraggio di spogliare, svelare ciò che una volta era obbligatoriamente coperto, far vedere “sotto il vestito” la bellezza di tanti antichi saperi dal tappezziere al fustaio, alle tele di canapa , alle farfalline del capitonè e far diventare le antiche poltrone in disuso di nuovo le protagoniste del salotto. view all photos.
