Birds & Eggs by Laura Zindel
November 28, 2012 I adore this card. “Put a little bird house in your soul.” What a great sentiment. It is kind of how I felt when I rounded the corner on one of my buying trips and spotted the stunning work of Laura Zindel.
I was surrounded by her birds. Her pencil drawings are silkscreened and printed as enamel transfers, creating her tabletop line.
We have had a bird section since we first opened 14 years ago, so I knew they had found a good home. The simplicity of her work is what really caught my eye.
They almost have a feel of old English engravings. I really like to see beautiful images on every day objects, like plates and bowls, so they can be enjoyed each and every day.
All of her work is produced entirely from her studio in Brattelboro, Vermont, which is a converted barn on her property next to her 1778 farmhouse. Which made me love it all even more.
