Survival of the Ceramics



I'm not usually a huge fan of ceramics. They kind of all look the same to me. But Circa Ceramics stand out like no other. Their designs are simple but the colors and images stand out. Their images seem to be the sort of thing that shows up on a lot of screenprinted t-shirts these days, but for ceramics it is something completely new. They have anything from simple polka dots and stripes, to elaborate floral patterns, vintage cameras, antique typewriters, bicycles, and skulls. Their prices can be sort of steep, to add one bowl or mug to your kitchen cabinet will cost from $30-$35 dollars. But if you just want to have a token or their craftsmanship, you can buy a decorative tag or magnet for only $8-$10. The work put into each item is definitely worth it.
