Piece handmade in the Estudio Vernis workshop in Spain.
Estudio Vernís is a studio that celebrates the craftsmanship and unexpectedness of clay and wood-firing. Each piece is individually handcrafted in their studio in the mountains of Alicante, Spain. Their ceramics are timeless, durable, and ever-evolving, 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. That's why their fingerprints are present at every step of the process, from pinching the clay to formulating the ash-based glazes or splitting the wood, leaving a mark on a durable and natural material, using primitive techniques and local resources.
