Studio pottery

Studio pottery refers to handcrafted ceramic art produced in small-scale studios, often by individual potters or small teams. Unlike mass-produced pottery, studio pottery emphasizes artistic expression, unique designs, and the use of high-quality materials. Each piece is typically crafted using traditional techniques, such as throwing on a potter's wheel or hand-building, making every item distinct. Studio potters may also experiment with glazes and firing methods to achieve various effects. The result is functional or decorative items that reflect the artist's vision, craftsmanship, and individuality, appealing to collectors and those who appreciate unique artistry in everyday objects.
