terrafirma ceramics

Founded in 1980 by artist Ellen Evans in New York City, Terrafirma Ceramics produces handmade, functional American art pottery. Originally studying archaeology with a focus on Ancient Greek pottery, Evans shifted her focus to creating everyday objects that merge artistic expression with practical durability. The brand is defined by its signature process: painting liquid porcelain through textiles and fine lace onto a base of warm, natural stoneware. This technique yields a distinctive, textured surface with vibrant, intricate patterns that feel both ancient and contemporary.
