Merle I bought this for my computer desk because it was very unique. However after a short period of time, with only pencils and favorite pens to place in it; it broke I to pieces unexpectedly.

I received this beautiful piece of artwork before Christmas. Even though it was described as a napkin holder, I have it on my desk to hold mail and other small papers. My whole family was impressed!

I was so happy to have this. It is pretty on the table. The only issue is it is too small to hold many napkins. They also need to be small size. It now holds mail.

I ordered this for my father-in-law, and it is exactly as pictured -- arrived perfectly packaged and in perfect condition. I was able to recycle all packaging. Thank you!!

A small but bold statement piece. Lovely detailing and the Oaxacan black clay makes it that much more unique. Perfect as a tribute for my Mexican heritage

This little bud vase is very pretty, sturdy but yet delicate in the way the cut outs are around the base. I really like the black clay because one can use with any decor in any room. Thank you so much. I did see the video as to how you make your items and I am very impressed.

I keep this as a decorative item on my desk. I love looking at it. Beautifully made.

This is the fourth piece I've purchased from Anakarem's shop. I just love the work she does.

I bought this for my best friend (her family is from Mexico) for her birthday. I didn't actually see it because it came to me giftwrapped, but it was WELL protected in it's box. It was wrapped for dear life. So, if you're concerned about the fragility of it... I'm not sure how it could possibly break with how well they packaged it in paper.

If you’re not using a pen/pencil cup as gorgeous as this one, it’s time to upgrade! A huge improvement from a coffee mug and still big step up from anything you’ll find at your big box office supply store. Wonderfully handcrafted with a graphite-like sheen.

The workmanship is outstanding. Love the design on this vase. Just the right size for my home. I love the story of how these items are made with black clay. Very happy with my purchase.

The pencil holder has a nice weight to it and a lovely design. The finish of the ceramic seems a bit organic compared to the vase I ordered. It is not a polished look. It has a artisan look to it which I like. Perfect size and holds quite a few pens, pencils, highlighters. Very nice and unique happy with my purchase. Would make a great gift.

Honestly, never thought I'd want a pencil holder of all things, but this piece has such a great look and feel to it I'm glad to have found it. Has a great weight to it, so no worries of it tipping over.
