Stephan discovered ceramics at the age of 10, beginning a lifelong passion that has grown into an artistic career spanning more than four decades. Over the years, his work has been collected and commissioned by distinguished clients including the Smithsonian Institution, Harry & David, Coldwater Creek, Crater Lake National Park, and Denali National Park, among others.Every vase and memorial urn is individually hand-thrown using the finest Grolleg porcelain and high-fired with crystalline glazes. The crystalline firing process creates naturally formed crystal patterns that can never be exactly duplicated, making each piece truly one of a kind.No molds are used, and no two pieces are ever alike. The piece shown is the exact piece you will receive—there are no reproductions or duplicates. Each work is a unique expression of craftsmanship, artistry, and the remarkable beauty that only crystalline porcelain can achieve.
