Atelier Stella specialise in creating ceramics with unique character and charm.

Established in 2012, Atelier Stella is an ever changing collection of hand made ceramics designed and made in Brighton. Stella strives to always create something unique, something that she would love to have in her own home. Influenced by Cornish, Italian, and Swedish potters from the 1950’s and 60’s, she enjoys mixing rustic patterns and whimsical characters.

Whether they contain a bouquet of flowers, a trendy succulent, or are simply left empty, her characterful designs guarantee that Stella Atelier ceramics are filled with life.

With each of her designs, Stella puts a contemporary twist on the traditional art of ceramics. She hand builds, fires and glazes each piece to create a truly unique work of art each time. As a result, all Atelier Stella ceramics are created in small, limited edition batches.

The Atelier Stella studio now opens to the public on a Friday

The process behind Atelier Stella creations is fascinating. Consequently,  Stella is now offering fans and wannabe potters a unique insight into her process by opening the doors to her studio. The public can make an appointment to visit the studio any Friday afternoon from 12 til 6 pm. Visitors are offered a unique insight into how the Atelier Stella studio is run. And at the end of their visit, there is also the opportunity to browse their latest collection. However, you might want to set yourself a budget as we imagine it will be pretty hard to leave any of these charming characters behind!
