But don't blame the artist. Many people make this mistake when looking at the real ginger-pot. Hanneke has faithfully conveyed the confusion of reality. Ossi, the woven straps are reed, not leather.

The pictures were barely dry. Hanneke is planning to have a still-life exhibition, but if she keeps selling from the studio, I don't see how she will have enough for a gallery.

Here, the symbolism derives from the contrast in mechanical properties – a ceramic that can shatter and the tensile strength of the leather - and the contrast in color – the clarity of spiritual teal and the earthy warm of brown.
