Laura Smillie – Ceramic Artist

Laura Smillie is a Ceramic artist based in Jersey, Channel Islands and from her studio in Saint Brelade, she handcrafts unique porcelain gifts, home accessories and jewellery.

Using slip casting and slab building pottery techniques, all of her work is handmade, one-by-one, in small batches from Porcelain; selected for its pure white colour and fantastic translucency. The porcelain is then decorated by hand, using a variety of surface pattern techniques- either painted, printed or marbled. For a high quality finish, the porcelain is sanded, polished and deliberately left unglazed to showcase the tactile and raw, natural beauty of the clay.

The end result is an unique piece of affordable ceramic art.
