monsieur cailloux creates adorable ceramic aliens

By

Public service announcement: we’ve just found out that aliens are not the tall slimy creatures that movies would have us believe. They don’t have long thin fingers, big black eyes or bulbous heads. According to Parisian ceramicist, Monsieur Cailloux, extra-terrestrial beings are actually rather adorable little critters that kind of look like rocks – and we seriously hope he’s right.

Monsieur has crafted dozens of the wee rock aliens over the past couple of years, which he says come from the stone planet MRCX. They’re so sweet that we’re considering pulling a Jeff Bezos just so we can personally visit MRCX, scoop a few ceramic rock pals into our pockets, and smuggle them back to Earth. (Though sadly, we do not have the funds to do so.) Peep Monsieur Cailloux’s Instagram if you’d like to check out more of his endearing creations.
