Gina has worked with clay since 1999 but founded her business in 2013. She began her ceramic studies at her local community college and by 2006 earned her MFA from Kent State University. You may have seen her work in Food & Wine Magazine, Uncommon Goods, Anthropologie, McGee & Co, Shoppe Amber Interiors and the Sundance catalog as well as over 400 retailers around the country. The process: Gina and her team work out of an old automobile factory in Lakewood, Ohio (just west of Cleveland). All work is designed and thrown by Gina. Her team helps in many aspects of the work including trimming, handling mugs, glaze development, glazing pots, firing work and working on hand built items. The entire team is hands on in the process so she can proudly state her work is made in the USA. Company values and goals (from the lead creator herself): I strive to create well-crafted functional wares for the home and table. I hope these become heirloom pieces for your home and family. I have created hands on jobs for the creative workforce and consider this one of my greatest accomplishments. I hope to grow my team slowly as my business grows. My language is functional design and it brings me joy to share these ideals of hand-crafted home decor. Read their story
