The Pottery Art of Hilde De Bruyn

 

 

When I discovered the beautiful work of the Belgian artist Hilde De Bruyn, I was smitten!!

Already more than forty years Hilde De Bruyn mainly manufactures handmade, solid, functional and decorative objects in stoneware.

Next to the art of turning clay, Hilde is even creating porcelain pottery.

All vases, plates, teapots, tableware etc. stand out through their shape and simplicity.

Hilde took part in several Belgian exhibitions.


Her work is on display and for sale in her own atelier and shop ‘Den Stenen Pot’.

Let us take a look at some of Hilde’s beautiful creations.

  3. I don't think there is anything more relaxing and rewarding that turning out a piece of pottery or sculpting clay. Such beautiful work here.
    Thank you for sharing, Greet.
    Have a great day!
