ABOUT US
Vessels + Sticks is a curated gallery dedicated exclusively to contemporary ceramic art. We present works by talented ceramic artists from around the world—both online and in our physical gallery space.
We aim to be a destination and a community for anyone drawn to ceramic artworks that are both contemporary in design and conceptual in approach. Whether you visit us in person or online, you’ll find thoughtfully selected pieces, relevant context about each artist and their practice, and the opportunity to collect work that resonates. Every artwork comes with a Certificate of Authenticity detailing its originality and relevant information.
We partner with ceramic artists across the globe—some based in your own community, others in places you may know through travel or personal connection. Each artist brings a unique perspective to their work, united by a deep passion for clay as a medium for expression, experimentation, and form. We’re proud to share their stories—and their work—with you.
Welcome.
OUR STORY
What began in 2021 as an Instagram account Vessels + Sticks to document the unique and beautiful ceramic works that I was discovering through a myriad of sources, has morphed into a passion for curating contemporary ceramics and showcasing them together in one place.
With a background in art history and business, as well as a passion for design, I’m thrilled to present these ceramic works to you through one curated lens. I’ll seek to highlight the key aspects of the artists’ experiences, techniques and practices that inspire their work and facilitate our connection to it. I’ll also provide as much design context as possible so you can easily imagine how to live with these beautiful pieces.
Shining a light on the field of ceramics and providing a source of inspiration for many has been an absolute pleasure, and I’m excited to continue the journey with our Vessels + Sticks online gallery.
