Flower Coaster
Handcrafted Ceramic Coaster
Measuring 4 x 4 inches, this ceramic square coaster is hand-slabbed and kiln-fired by Asheville-based artist Lorraine Formato. Its smooth white surface is adorned with a delicate green line drawing of a flower vase, blending practical design with fine art sensibility. A lifelong maker, Lorraine’s career spans decades of innovation in clay.
She was connected to the legacy of Black Mountain College and played a pivotal role in the revitalization of Asheville’s River Arts District, helping to shape it into the thriving creative hub it is today. Known for her mastery of rare glazing techniques and fearless experimentation with form and firing methods, Lorraine’s work bridges utility and artistry.
This coaster is as durable as it is beautiful—perfect for protecting tabletops while adding a refined, botanical accent to your home. Whether in use or displayed, it reflects the history, craftsmanship, and artistic vision of one of Asheville’s most accomplished ceramicists.
