Rosiland & Barry Hage

Our lifestyle has a direct influence upon our work. We both grew up on the beaches of Southern California and have traveled extensively for 40 years enjoying various tropical landscapes, sea life surroundings and the desert in bloom.

In addition to our functional home and garden pieces, we created a series of murals, non-functional teapots, baskets, platters, fountains, and jars. The varied vessel forms are decorated with colors and surface designs reminiscent of our favorite exotic locales.

The process originates with low fire and high fire clay, glazes and stains. Each piece combines wheel throwing and hand building sculpture. Metallic luster of 24-carat gold or platinum enhance the design or lend an “attitude” to each piece. Some sculptures are embellished with cast clay symbolic objects, either hand carved or collected from our adventures. Each completed clay sculpture is unique and entirely created by Barry and Rosalind.

In 2006 we “retired” from wholesale and traveling to devote ourselves to our studio/gallery/gardens and local museum exhibits and art festivals. Every year we host two annual studio open houses in May and October… come join us!
