With a background in design, Victoria Chin is particularly inspired by the structure and
geometric forms found in architecture, which resonate throughout her work.
Victoria’s jewelry collection OXVC (Objects by Victoria Chin) combines ceramics and design.
Each piece is meticulously crafted. From geometric forms to its monochromatic palette,
every aspect celebrates the materiality and processes in ceramics.
It will be the last Pedestrian Sunday of 2018!

She will be there from 12pm to 5:30pm on October 28th, stop on by!
