La Motte is celebrating fynbos and Cape flora with a special ceramics exhibition, entitled Fragile Fynbos.
As a part of the Franschhoek Art in Clay Festival, La Motte’s featured ceramists have each created a body of work inspired by the local fynbos grown on the La Motte farm.
Browse the gallery above to view some of our favourites from the exhibition.
You can visit the La Motte tasting room from 9am – 5pm, Monday to Saturday to view these creative pieces. The exhibition runs until 28 November 2015. For more information, visit la-motte.com.
