Claire Malet



"The fusion of reclaimed and precious metals in Claire Malet’s vessels is highly unusual and gives a mysterious and exotic character to the work. Discarded metal containers are plucked from obscurity and transformed. Claire works each piece entirely with hand tools, using heat, chasing and gilding techniques and often pushes the metal to the limit of workability to achieve the organic qualities she seeks. Each vessel is unique." - website.
