shop handcrafted ceramic creations for your home
Sophie throws on a traditional kick wheel, which means that no electricity is used in the throwing stage as the wheel is operated by her foot. Each piece is hand painted with oxides in floral and abstract patterns, often inspired by folk art and sentimental objects from Sophie’s Polish heritage.
Zosia Ceramics was sparked by a floral doodle that Sophie’s mother used to do in greetings cards to her loved ones, and in honour of Magda’s memory she signs her pottery with her Polish name, Zosia.
In the web shop you’ll be able follow along with Sophie's creative explorations. You'll discover regularly updated curations of one-of-a-kind pieces, amongst some of Sophie’s more familiar pieces, as she continues to delight in the nature of clay.

All Zosia Ceramics are made from a sandy-coloured stoneware clay and usually finished in a transparent gloss glaze. The glaze has a light crackle in thicker places but is perfectly safe for use as dinnerware. Handwashing is always recommended for handmade ceramics but if you aren’t able to do so for any reason, it should be ok in a dishwasher as long as you avoid pottery clattering during the wash. Although the stoneware clay itself is very durable, there is risk of the glaze chipping if ill-packed.
