Carefully crafted ceramics. 

In her Prague studio, Marie Poirot likes to explore the endless possibilities of the clay and in her pieces, you will always find an organic touch. You can find Marie’s pieces in renowned restaurants including the Hilton Hotel, Levitate Restaurant, GRAM. Prague, Letterpress Café, or Casa de Carli in Prague as well as many homes all around the world. Marie studied Product Design in Paris before graduating with a Master’s in Interdisciplinary Design in Scotland in 2010.

In her words: “Terra Ceramics is the result of my long-lasting passion for ceramics. I love simplicity and it inspires me every day to create objects that are both functional and unique. I grew up in suburban Paris as an only child. When I discovered the wheel more than 10 years ago I immediately fell in love and finding the perfect shape and the perfect imperfections has been a journey that I can see myself pursuing until my old age. When the kiln opens there is always a lesson to be learned and the next piece brings me a little closer to the natural perfection I am looking for.”
