She personally works all his objects on the wheel and prepares the glazes herself, starting from ancient Chinese and Korean recipes and using the ashes of different plants.

In this hidden corner of the bustling city, Adele passionately embraces the art of ceramics. Through careful craftsmanship and unwavering dedication, she breathes new life into fractured pieces, transforming them into stunning masterpieces adorned with a touch of gold. Her chosen technique is Kintsugi, a resplendent expression of the ancient Japanese art of mending broken ceramics with pure gold.
With meticulous hands and an artist's eye, Adele personally molds each ceramic object on the wheel, curving the clay into graceful shapes that elicit both awe and admiration. The wheel becomes an extension of her own essence, seamlessly merging with her craft. Every turn tells a story—a narrative of her devotion to the delicate balance between nature's imperfections and her restorative touch.
