Urushi

Ceramics

We make reliable objects for intentional living. We believe in handcrafted, simple, and functional objects made by human hands for human hands.

  • We celebrate old and new techniques. Always with the use of our hands at the centre. The same hands that were used thousands of years ago.

  • We believe beautiful and functional objects also mean long-lasting and sustainable. When something is made with care and appreciation it is also cherished, fixed and used daily.

    Using local, high-quality materials is a big part of that philosophy.

  • We value a strong interconnecting bond between the materials, the history, the artists, the techniques and finally also the customers.

    Sharing more than just the final product.
