Rooted in the rugged Mediterranean landscapes of Catalonia, Yoyo Balagué crafts soulful, sculptural ceramics that embody earth, fire, and spirit. Entirely self-taught, she combines ancient techniques like Urbido and pit firing with a meditative, ritual-based practice — resulting in raw, imperfect forms that feel both ancient and quietly modern. Her work has become a touchstone of Wabi Sabi design, seen in countless moodboards and interiors that value stillness, texture, and the beauty of natural imperfection.

In this profile, we explore how a chance encounter, bold reinvention, and a deep-rooted Tuscan sensibility led her to create CV Gioielli Scultura — a jewelry line where each piece is both artifact and emotion.
