Ceramics for the Home
Hand made in San Franciso
Made for Everyday
I make durable, functional stoneware for everyday use. After years working as a chef, I learned how much good design matters in the kitchen — how a mug feels in your hand, how a bowl sits on the table, and how well a plate holds up to real use. That experience shapes everything I make now. I handbuild and throw each piece with care, keeping usability and comfort front and center. Every item is made to be lived with — microwave, dishwasher, and oven safe — and built to last.
My work balances durability and elegance, tradition and modern design. I use high-fire stoneware and glazes that stand up to daily life, so each piece can move easily from the table to the sink to the next meal. The goal is simple: to make pottery that fits naturally into your routine and makes everyday moments feel a little more special.
Surfaces are straightforward, with glazes chosen to highlight the form and function of each piece. I test everything I make through use — how it stacks, pours, and handles over time. The result is pottery that feels comfortable, reliable, and made to work hard while still looking good.
