"Despite its name, Beginner Ceramics is anything but novice. While the Brooklyn-based studio approaches clay with a confident sense of play, its work is grounded in technical mastery and a deep understanding of form - transforming everyday objects into sculptural pieces with a clear point of view. Its latest launches continue that exploration in ways that feel joyful and refreshingly unpretentious."
"The Endless Lamp returns in new double- and triple-stacked forms, pushing its exploration of height, repetition, and scale even further. Hand-thrown ceramic sections stack into a rhythmic silhouette, finished with an unglazed shade that casts a soft, linen-like glow and a brass dimmer that brings warmth and tactility to the experience. Referencing early ceramic traditions and Brancusi's The Infinite Column, the lamp balances playfulness with precision in punchy hues."
"Available in round, square, oval, and rectangular forms, each frame is built from hand-sculpted ceramic coils joined into continuous, flowing patterns. The looping gesture nods to cursive script and Art Deco lighting, while the repetition of the coil brings a sense of movement and softness to the mirror's edge. Pulling double duty as both reflective surface and sculptural object, the mirrors add drama and personality"
Beginner Ceramics, a Brooklyn-based studio, applies technical mastery and playful confidence to hand-crafted clay objects. The studio reimagines everyday forms as sculptural lighting, mirrors, and vases with strong formal clarity. The Endless Lamp appears in double- and triple-stacked hand-thrown sections, featuring unglazed shades and brass dimmers that create a soft, linen-like glow and tactile warmth. Looping Mirrors use hand-sculpted ceramic coils in continuous patterns across round, square, oval, and rectangular frames, introducing movement and a cursive, Art Deco nod. The Dune Signal Vase combines embracing handles and negative-space framing into a geometric, layered, large-scale form that encourages slow visual exploration.
