Anne Black glossy glazed porcelain wall hook

A porcelain wall hook designed by Anne Black

Anne Black is a Danish ceramicist based in Copenhagen. She designed this model in 2007, and it is handmade in the workshop she founded in 2005 with the Hang family in Bat Trang, the pottery village near Hanoi, Vietnam. Each piece is individually cast, glazed or coloured, and fired: slight variations in shade are part of its charm.

The glossy glazed finish

The porcelain is coated with a tinted transparent glaze, fired at a high temperature to create a glossy, smooth, vitrified surface that wipes clean with a sponge. As each piece is glazed by hand, the shade and thickness of the glaze vary slightly from one piece to another.

27 colours

Choice of 27 shades: white, cream, peach, coral, powder pink, lavender, lilac, amethyst, terracotta, mango, lemon yellow, ochre, caramel, hazelnut, mocha, greige, concrete grey, storm grey, light blue, cobalt blue, denim blue, jade, mint green, sage green, petrol green, dark green, and white with blue spots.
