Handmade altar - 24K Gold Moonphase - Studio Avalon Bohème

This handmade ceramic altar features a refined 24k gold moon design, set against a deep glossy blue glaze that gives the piece a rich and calm presence. The contrast between the gold detail and the blue surface creates a quiet focal point without feeling overly decorative.

The altar can be hung on the wall or placed freestanding, making it easy to integrate into your space. It is designed to create a dedicated place in your home where you can pause, reflect, and bring intention into your daily routine. Whether used for meditation, prayer, or simply as a meaningful object in your living room, yoga studio, or meditation space, it adds a grounded and steady atmosphere.

Each piece is individually handcrafted, making every altar one of a kind. Slight variations in size, shape, and finish are part of the process and reflect the authenticity of handmade work. Every item is carefully built or wheel-thrown, trimmed, assembled, fired, glazed, and fired again. When gold is applied, the piece undergoes an additional luster firing. The full process takes between one and two months.

To maintain its quality, hand washing is recommended. The piece is not suitable for use in the microwave or dishwasher. While all materials used are food safe, this altar is not intended for food use.

Accessories shown in photos, such as gemstones, are not included.
