"Handmade ceramics"
Handmade isn't for everyone..it is for us who need beauty with soul in our life, who believe eating dinner and drinking coffee should be an experience and not just a routine, and who would like to know the origin of the products we consume.

I am Chrissa, an architect and a graphic designer who fell in love with clay. Every piece you see in my shop is handmade and designed by me, in my studio in a small village in Crete.

I studied Architecture and currently studying for a master’s degree in Graphic Arts & Multimedia. While working as an architect, I started taking a ceramics class run by “The Centre for the Study of Modern Pottery” in Athens. It was there that I discovered how working with clay needed to play a big part in my life.

I love the ritual of turning mud into works of art, that are functional and accessible to people in their everyday lives. I create forms with or without a pottery wheel, using my hands, and simple tools. Due to the handmade nature, slight variations and imperfections create one of a kind items, each one with its own character. The rich diversity of Cretan scenery, the sea, mountains, and Greek culture are my inspiration.
