When I met my designs in the market of a remote village in the West Indies, or in the airport restaurant in Zurich, I felt like the mother of many well-behaved children.
From Eva Zeisel
When you have clay in your hands, it's hard to avoid making birds.
My work is very bodily. It's not a shell, but a body.
When I design something, I think of it as a gift to somebody else.
Men have no concept of how to design things for the home. Women should design the things they use.
I am a maker of useful things.
I don't call myself an 'industrial designer,' because I'm other things. Industrial designers want to make novel things. Novelty is a concept of commerce, not an aesthetic concept.
