"Our holy water font from Monica arrived nestled in straw like a relic. The amber glaze catches the late afternoon light through the window above our front door — it has become the heart of our home."
Kind Words
From collectors, parishioners, and families who live with Sacred By Design ceramics.
"Our holy water font from Monica arrived nestled in straw like a relic. The amber glaze catches the late afternoon light through the window above our front door — it has become the heart of our home."
"I commissioned the Sacred Heart stoup as a wedding gift for my daughter. Monica took the time to ask about her, her parish, her patron saint. The piece felt blessed before it ever left the studio."
"There is a quietness to these vessels that I have never felt from a piece of pottery before. The lace impression font sits on our entry table and visitors always reach for it — gently, almost reverently."
"Monica's work is what I imagine a medieval cloister potter would have made. Honest clay, prayerful form, no two alike. I have three pieces now and they have outlasted every other thing I have bought this year."
"We use the obsidian bloom font for our small family altar. Our children dip their fingers in it on the way to school each morning. It is the most loved object in our house."
