Guinea Fowl Ceramics
DRAGANA'S CERAMICS
Every piece is uniquely decorated by free hand, and often includes African motives: birds, feathers and geckos. Shunning ready-made commercial products, she mixes her own cobalt blue and tawny underglaze colours. Her acclaimed cobalt Blue Guinea Fowl design, inspired by Dutch and Chinese tradition and interpreted with an vision which owes much to her European heritage, depicts the quaint, indigenous African guinea fowl that abound in the gardens and parks of Cape Town. Her slip cast ceramics are stoneware fired to 1220'C and glazed with lead free transparent glaze, making her products oven proof, microwave and dishwasher safe.
