Hello! We are staying at my father in law & his wifes home & they have a beautiful platter about 18 in diameter… Olive back colors with cobalt shape in the edge to middle & interesting white dots that almost look like watercolor. It is so beautiful & my children broke it. We are so upset & are looking to replace it & live in ventura,california (southern California). Are there any stores (physical or online) that I can visit so that I may replace the piece? Thank you so much for your help… My mother in law really enjoys your work erin doubek

Oh, Lisa, I can’t thank you enough for bringing this lovely, talented artist to my attention! Her work is haunting (in a good way) and so dear. I’m heading to her shop right now, but I had to thank you first. What a treasure…

Blessings to you, and to Sawako! xox.

The work of Sawako Hayakawa captured my attention and my heart. I simply had to touch it. My wish came true when she opened her Etsy shop and I was able to have one for my very own. (now two and probably lots more soon) Sawako’s photographs of her work are darling indeed but they don’t compare to the absolute dearness of holding one in your own hand. They come packaged so sweetly with all the loving care of a mother swaddling her infant which to me was nearly as endearing as the work itself. For me, they will be treasure for always.

Great interview! I started noticing her after that Kitlane comment too! One of these days I’ll get me a little porcelain friend from Japan.

I love that her inspiration comes from wonderful movies! I never did get around to seeing The Birds, although I’ve seen a lot of his other work. I guess I should get out and watch that!

I adore her work and the interview was truly insightful. Wow!! I would never have imagined pairing that adorable little kittie in a stuffed suit lying on its side and a scene from one of my favorite intensely psychological movies from my childhood. I can picture the exact scene it my mind right now!
Lisa , I can’t wait to see you plush you contributions. Maybe i need to start working on mine. Hmmm
