Clara Gutiérrez, Spanish, with a degree in Art History and Cultural Management, discovered ceramics in 2016 and decided to make it her profession. She trained with Christophe Bonnard and Grégoire Scalabre at Arts et Techniques Céramiques then moved into residence at Fernanda Justina's studio, Temps de Terre, in Paris. CLARINA is the project resulting from this reconversion. Her inspirations are very varied: from Pop Art to the Bauhaus, Clara is as fond of enamelled pieces in dazzling colors as the beauty of a chamotte clay left raw.

NOTE: Like any handcrafted product, these pieces may have slight variations in shape, color and thickness.
