Piece made by hand in the Estudio Vernis workshop in Spain.
Estudio Vernís is a workshop that celebrates craftsmanship and the unexpected nature of clay and wood firing. Each piece is individually handmade in their workshop located in the mountains of Alicante, Spain. Timeless, durable, and constantly evolving ceramics, designed to be functional. The studio was founded in 2019 by Alejandra and Coke, a couple who studied architecture and decided they wanted to use their hands and natural resources to make something they identified with. They aspire to a world where every object contains the traces of the hands that made it. This is why their fingerprints are present at every step of the process, from pinching the clay to formulating ash-based glazes or splitting wood, leaving a mark in a durable and natural material, using primitive techniques and local resources.
