Couture, Prêt-à-porter & Bespoke Ceramics
by appointment to HRH The Real Queen of Stuff
Unique ceramics, handmade in Greece by The Real Queen of Stuff (aka. Alexandra Kollaros), together with Ble Zebra,
created to add character to your life and put a smile on your face.
The Royal Artefacts line consists of two distinct collections: Couture and Prêt-à-porter.
(yes, we know the terms Couture and Prêt-à-porter don’t really apply in ceramics.)
We also offer a Bespoke commissions service.
The inaugural collections’ theme is white: a metaphor for new beginnings.
Our Philosophy
We use the term Artefacts to describe objects made by human beings; objects which give information about the cultural context of their time and tell a story. In the same spirit, Alexandra‘s ceramics narrate their own stories. Drawing inspiration from her daily experience as an art world professional, a woman and -first and foremost- a person happening to exist at this moment in time
the artist comments on it all through these art objects.
In a world that gets more homogenised by the second we need stronger statements.
We embrace imperfections and accidents, we believe that -like in real life- they are part of the allure.
We create unique objects with identity to make you feel special and introduce joy to your every day.
We hope you love our ceramics as much as we love creating them.
THE PRÊT-À-PORTER LINE
We have a surprise for you:
Contrary to fashion protocol, our Prêt-à-porter pieces are all one of a kind.
Hand-painted and hand-glazed, each one is unmistakably unique and could not be replicated even if we wanted to.
THE BOWLS
Sacred containers of food, the Bowls will help you conduct your meals in style.
How to use: Fill with your favourite food and devour your meal guilt-free.
Alternatively, use the bowl as a container or adore as a decorative object.
Bowls are 40 € each.

How to use: Top with your favourite beverage or go incognito and fill with the alcoholic spirit of your choice.

THE ROYAL POMEGRANATES
As per Greek tradition pomegranates are auspicious, symbolising good luck, abundance and prosperity.
Our Royal Pomegranates represent just that: our wish for you to receive all the goodness in the world.
How to use: Buy as many as you can and share with your favourite people. Or keep them all to yourself for extra swag.
AN ESSENTIAL ITEM TO KICK-START EVERY YEAR, THE LUCKY POMEGRANATES ARE YOUR GO-TO, AUSPICIOUS, GOOD LUCK TALISMANS.
The Royal Pomegranates are 20€ each but they have SOLD OUT.
They will be back again in November 2023.

BESPOKE
Need something tailor-made for a special occasion or just because you are feeling extra amazing?
It will be a pleasure to create a custom made art object especially for you.
Do you feel you deserve your one of a kind plate, reflecting your one of a kind personality? Or maybe you know of a badass gardener, a sexy translator or a lovely John who simply must have their own mug? The Royal Team will be delighted to create these customised art objects exclusively for you (and them!). Even better? If you know The Real Queen of Stuff in person, give her free reign to create a bespoke artefact as she envisions it for you.
