A sweet Munbeibi stem vase that captures all the sweetness of a dessert in ceramic form. This vase can hold only dry flower stems, and measures approximately 6x9”

Each Munbeibi is hand sculpted and glazed by Hannah in her Langford, B.C. studio.

This piece is part of Hannah’s Ceramic Bakery collection, exhibited in summer 2023 at The Old School House Arts Centre, finally available to the public after Hannah jealously kept her in the studio for a while.

THE STORY
Once upon a time, 238,900 miles from here, the Moon was made up of hundreds of little pieces of moon (rather than one big chunk). Those little pieces were called Munbeibis. They spent their time floating along with each other, observing comets and stars. They were generally known to be calm and contented creatures, but (as happens with many humans) some of the Moon Babes began to wonder what life was like in other places, such as on that big blue and green rock their world constantly circled...

A few years ago, a small convoy of Munbeibis decided to set out from their lunar orbit to investigate Earth. After much travel and exploration, the Munbeibis settled in the forests and seashores of our planet, preferring the company of trees and stars to city life, marveling at the lush greenery and shifting water. Sometimes, they set out from their hiding places to say hello to a special human or two, to bring you wisdom from the cosmos, fruits, cakes and flowers, and a little warm company.
