fragILé
Quiet Objects For Loud Feelings
Welcome to the intimate world of fragILé, a limited-edition ceramics collection from acclaimed Cape Town-based multidisciplinary artist Ilené Bothma. Conceived as a quiet extension of her art practice, fragILé handmade ceramics bridge the space between high art and everyday ritual.
Ilené draws inspiration from textiles, translating delicate floral lace fragments, woven patterns and motifs from her own knitting into soft, textural echoes pressed into the clay. Each piece is a meditation on time and touch, hand-built slowly and intuitively.
The collection’s signature candles are designed for permanence; when the fragrance and flame have passed, the beautiful ceramic vessel remains. It becomes a quiet, renewable comfort for your morning ritual and a daily reminder that care and beauty can persist beyond their initial purpose.
The exclusive range includes candles, mugs, bowls, plates, and elegant cups and saucers, all functional objects made to be lived with and enjoyed as a daily reminder of time, care and beauty.
fragILé ceramics are an invitation to embrace beauty and the delicate balance between strength and fragility in your own spaces.
