Each piece is hand-made and no two are the same, but it’s the plant imprinting that makes them truly unique.

Al Ajmani doesn’t use a wheel, but instead works on each piece for hours or days. “I’ve been playing with all sorts of clay (air-drying, polymer, earthenware) since I was a child. I learned how to work with it professionally in university, but didn’t pick up the practice until about a year ago,” her website reads.
