Meet the Maker
My name is Andrew Moore. I started ceramics about seven years ago inspired by my hobbies and desire to design and create new products for the garden, fish aquarium, and reptile pet hobbies. I saw the opportunities for new ceramic products to introduce to these hobbies.
Currently I am focused on products for the garden or plant hobbies, particularly orchids or epiphytic plants. The potential variety of designs for orchid mounts is endless.
If you do not see a mount design that appeals to you, please keep watching my site. More designs will be added. I'm working to get more products produced and added to my site. If you have the need for certain dimensions of a mount, please reach out to me. It's possible to create the dimensions you need for your plant.
How it’s Made
Handmade from rolled clay slabs and various hand tools from stoneware clay. Some tools I make myself. Once dried, piece is then fired to cone 6 in a ceramic kiln. The whole process takes several days. Although I repeat many designs, each piece is unique and no two are exactly the same. Many of my designs are intended to be rough hewn in appearance with imperfections such as rough, random edges. The random edges is one of my favorite designs. Gives a natural looking element to the mount.
