One-of-a-kind Sculptural Bottle No.1
About the Item
A raw and evocative sculptural bottle hand built by New York-based artist Ilona Golovina. Made from heavily grogged, unglazed clay, the piece captures the elemental texture of earth itself—marked by cracks, soft ridges, and subtle folds that recall the contours of the body or weathered stone.
Golovina presses slabs of clay into the ground before construction, allowing the landscape to leave its imprint. Each vessel is then shaped slowly by hand, with no two forms alike. These works honor the Japanese wabi-sabi tradition and carry the spirit of contemporary artifact—embracing imperfection, balance, and time-worn beauty.

Ilona Golovina
Ilona Golovina, originally from Stavropol, Russia (1987), is a Brooklyn-based ceramic artist known for her approach to texture, form, and structure.
Self-taught in ceramics, Ilona’s work is rooted in traditional vessel shapes but pushes boundaries through experimental textures, unique clay combinations, and forms that seem to defy gravity. She often incorporates found materials—like broken glass and metal collected from the streets, creating visually striking effects. This process not only enhances the aesthetic of her work but also reflects her commitment to recycling and repurposing materials.
