Materials
Whilst each Oditi Designs doll is one-of-a-kind, every single one is produced using natural non-toxic porcelain, often with the addition of gold lustre, depending on your chosen style of doll.
Oditi Designs proudly supports other small Australian businesses by purchasing their ceramic materials from special suppliers based in the Central Coast of NSW, Western Sydney and oftentimes Western and South Australia.
Gold lustre is made using real gold particles suspended in a liquid, usually pine oil resin, using 12% real gold. Due to a lack of production in Australia, the lustre is often purchased from Europe.
Inspiration
During university study ceramicist Cecilia produced many artworks featuring heads and faces, an inspired fusion of her Mapuche and Chilean cultural influence.
Mapuche are often demeaned and discriminated against within Chile due to their brown skin, and Cecilia was keen to find a channel to represent diversity as beauty.
Over time the dolls developed as a means to bring joy, much like face painting at a fair. Creating playful masks such as cats, devils, bunnies and other figures to produce a marketable product with function.
Today one of Oditi Designs most popular products, the dolls are a much loved quirky product bought by customers all over the world from Germany to Japan, Norway to France and beyond.
Dolls are created using a slip casting technique, then each piece required for attachment is individually sculpted by hand, cleaned and refined with ceramicist tools.
Once bisqued and dried each piece is hand painted, glazed and boxed and ready for you to enjoy.
