Studio Yoki Small Plate

Meet Emma, the creative mind behind Studio Yōki, a small pottery studio located in the heart of Glasgow. Emma's journey into the world of ceramics began a few years ago when she discovered her passion for clay and traditional handbuilding techniques. Armed with a background in visual art and a degree in painting, Emma found herself drawn to the tactile nature of clay, reminiscent of the textures she once explored on canvas. Emma infuses her work with a sense of meditative rhythm, creating each piece with her own hands to achieve a harmonious balance between process and play. At Studio Yōki, Emma crafts organic, one-of-a-kind ceramic homewares, each telling a unique tale of the maker's hands. Through her work, Emma seeks to add a little joy to homes and celebrate the beauty of imperfection. The name "Yōki," meaning vessel in Japanese, reflects Emma's reverence for the art of pottery and her commitment to creating vessels that bring happiness and utility into everyday life.
