Natalia Criado

Overview

The “Joyas en Casa” or “Gems at Home” collection by Natalia Criado transcends the constraints of traditional ceramic tableware. Redefining the essence of everyday objects, each piece is immersed in a luminous fusion of sculptural mastery and sensory appeal. Whether it is a simple salt cellar or fascinating vases, each element moves harmoniously between function and decoration. Natalia aims to create objects that not only endure over time thanks to their textures, but also possess timeless appeal which challenges trends. Using materials like metal and stone, Criado brings out the beauty in everyday objects, elevating them via an artistic and experimental process. Her desire is to offer users the gift of time, inviting them to take part in a ritual and to slow down and savour the moment.
