Three pieces from Keyvan’s Black and Gold limited edition: matte charcoal clay bound in hand-laid gold calligraphy, each one thrown, glazed and gilded alone.
The Scribe's Vessel
Matte-black form, its shoulder wrapped in gold calligraphy; the collar a field of hand-laid gold dots.
The Gilded Pistachio
A split shell of matte black clay, its halves parting to a mirror-gold seed brushed in Persian script.
Black Pomegranate
Matte pomegranate crowned with a mouth of gilded seeds; a single gold line curls across the body.
The Signature Pomegranates
Each pomegranate begins as a single closed form, thrown whole and never rushed, then cut, fired and gilded by hand, one crown at a time.
The Pistachio
A porcelain shell splitting open: blue-and-white chintz outside, a cobalt heart of gilded dragonflies within.

Keyvan Fehri has worked in clay for over three decades, reviving historic Persian firing and lustre techniques by hand in his Toronto studio. Best known for his signature ceramic pomegranates, each vessel is thrown, glazed and gilded alone, so no two close in quite the same way.
