This is a little slice of joy — handcrafted in clay.
This one-of-a-kind ceramic trinket box is shaped like a slice of cake and lovingly handmade from rustic terracotta clay using the slab building technique. Playful yet grounded in natural materials, it blends whimsy with artisanal craftsmanship.
The lid is topped with a hand-sculpted butterfly, which acts as both a decorative feature and a functional handle. The butterfly is carefully shaped and painted by hand, adding a soft, storybook charm to the piece.
The exterior is brushed with an ivory slip wash to create a gently weathered surface, then hand-painted with underglaze in earthy blush and deep brown stripe details — reminiscent of layered cake. A transparent glaze seals the surface, protecting the design while allowing the warmth of the clay to subtly show through.
Inside, the transparent glaze deepens over the terracotta to create a rich, dark chocolate tone — smooth, glossy, and beautifully contrasting the lighter exterior.
This is a decorative object that makes people smile — while still being entirely functional.
