  • Tanya la Mantia's work is made in fine bone china, a material renowned for it’s pure whiteness, fineness, translucency and strength. Bone china is traditionally an expensive material, as each piece needs a ‘setter’, which is a separate piece, used to support the form during the firing and then discarded afterwards. Bone china is also technically very challenging to work with, but the beautiful results are worth it.
