From the earth, everything begins. Or at least the things that are especially significant to me. I started in the mud as a child, passionately crafting my initial shapes. I made what were supposed to be vessels and decorated them with leaves. Flowers come from the earth. I embarked on the color palette exploration for these vases with my heart, without overthinking, and inevitably found satisfaction in the earthy tones that are also part of our brand's essence, the idea we live for.

Everything also originates from rhythm. And it is not anything different from the soil. When we listen to a consistent rhythm, a melody begins to emerge over time. The Blanche collection taught me the importance of rhythm. However, I wanted more than just the technique with which the bowls from that collection were decorated. I was searching for something, I didn't know what, but I was guided. Through my search, I clarified that a vase is half of a composition, and a bouquet is the other half. I realized that the vase is that rhythm that provides communication, grounding, direction, and inspiration for a composition. The carved motifs are rhythm games, and gold is light, heralding the arrival of a miraculous melody invoked by the rhythm with which harmony will arise. When harmony exists, we say there is a composition, meaning there's purpose, hence beauty.

Will you know how to choose flowers for this vase? Look at it; if you find it beautiful, revel in that feeling as you select flowers, and we guarantee success. It's that simple.

Bokor (boh-kor) is an archaic South Slavic word for a bouquet.

Less tools and more focus for bringing out the most noble values of porcelain that will make us better people after sitting around the table.

"Fewer tools and more focus for bringing out the noblest values of porcelain that will make us better people after sitting around the table."
It was my grandma. She called me Boya and introduced me to the home rituals around the table. She was not hiding porcelain tableware from herself, saving it for "special occasions." Still, she was using it with love and care. I have a collection with imprints of her dolly named after her, Bosa.

I never took academic education in pottery. It was my passion while being a student of the Chinese language, my salvation when I returned from China after a year, disappointed with how little of the culture I had dedicated my young years had left. It was my guiding light when I worked for a large retail chain listing their products all day.

After ten years of practicing and a couple of give-ups, I was ready for the most beautiful and demanding material: porcelain. It was the point of no return. It is rewarding just to work with it.

Porcelain takes time and focus. It allows a ceramist just a narrow passage that has to be passed at a certain pace. Both too quickly or too slow will make a piece break. That meditative state it brings me to is the reward. Everything else comes as a confirmation.

People's need to gather around the table is their essential need. We don't gather to hear or say anything new but to confirm the old in a new way. We tell stories to accept and overcome the transience. We can do that without porcelain or food or drink on a table. Still, we can enrich the occasion as an accolade to ourselves for the hard work we've put into what we do, our relationships, and endeavors of any kind. Porcelain is solid and fragile at the same time. It is noble not to be flashy but beautiful. Stories become better; katharsis is deeper; we become better people.

In 2012, I started my own brand. That is when I met my husband, and we quickly became business partners. It is easy as we believe in the same. He is in charge of everything but the very production. We have been on the Boya team for seven years, joined by some young collaborators that we are proud of.

I love jazz, Vietnamese cuisine, Nick Cave, Paul Auster, and more.
