About us

Everything begins in the soil

At studiobrosia, every piece of work is born from a common lump of clay.
She likes that touch - moist, quiet and real.
In the embrace and rotation of her palm, the soil gradually took shape, as if listening to her heartbeat.
I have always believed that Tao has a memory. She often says so.
It remembers the temperature of my hand, the mood I was in at that time, and also the way I hoped it would become.

Thus, through repeated molding, drying, glazing and firing, those seemingly simple cups and trays acquire unique personalities.
Some glazes are as light as morning mist, while others have slightly uneven edges. It is precisely this imperfection that makes each piece of work like a living child - an existence with stories and breathing.

Pottery is a poetic extension of life

studiobrosia's works do not pursue exquisite symmetry or excessive magnificence.
On the contrary, she is more willing to capture the most subtle tenderness in life:
It was a faint shadow cast by the morning light on the dining table, a peaceful moment amid the aroma of tea in the afternoon, and the crisp sound of the pottery gently clanging when washing dishes.

Every bowl, every ring holder, and every tray is like a witness to daily life.
They silently accompany every meal, every declaration of love, and every little sense of ceremony.

She often says, "The most charming aspect of handmade pottery is not its perfection, but its warmth." When people use them for meals, decoration or storage, they will unconsciously slow down their movements because it is a process about 'feeling'.

A ritual from the dining table to the soul

Among studiobrosia's works, there are many ring holders - those are creations she particularly cherishes.
These small earthenware trays are often used to hold love and carry memories.
She enjoys watching the way guests choose them: some are preparing for a wedding, and some are commemorating an important day.

She said, "When you place a ring on a tray, at that moment, it is no longer just an object but a carrier of emotions." It is already a kind of happiness for my works to be able to participate in such moments.

The same temperature also exists in her plates and bowls.
A customer told her, "I don't want to use it. I just want to look at it every day."
She replied with a smile, "Please do use it." Because its significance does not lie in collection, but in integration into life.

In her eyes, the beauty of ceramics does not lie on the display shelves, but in the marks of use.
That is the touch left by time, the most sincere communication between people and things.

The dialogue between the kiln fire and the heart fire

Firing is the most challenging process in pottery that tests one's temperament.
In the high-temperature kiln fire, everything can change: colors will flow, glazes will crack, and shapes will slightly deform.
Sometimes, these "accidents" are surprising. Sometimes, they make days of hard work go to waste.

But she is never discouraged.
Every firing is a collaboration of fate.
She regards this uncontrollable change as a metaphor for life.

Just like life, sometimes it goes smoothly, and sometimes it is broken.
No matter what the outcome is, as long as it is done with sincerity, it will leave a mark.

In the world of studiobrosia, those subtle glaze cracks and natural patterns are all beauties worth collecting.
They remind people that true tenderness is not about being flawless, but about still shining with traces.

Nature is the eternal mentor

studiobrosia's inspiration mostly comes from nature.
From the texture of the rocks and the curvature of the shells to the light and shadow on the lake in the early morning, she can always find the rhythm of her creation.
Her works are often presented in soft natural color schemes - off-white, grayish blue, pine green, light brown - as if in a dialogue between the earth and the sky.

"Naturally, there was no design drawing," she said, "but every shape and every crack of it was just right."
So, in her creations, she often sets aside the rules, allowing pottery and fire to blend freely, presenting the most natural state.
This free soul has also given studiobrosia its unique warmth.

An object, a journey

Whenever a pottery bowl was wrapped up, named and ready to be sent far away, she would softly say, "Go and meet your master."
For her, each piece of work is like a child, traveling to different cities, different homes, and witnessing different lives.

She likes receiving letters from customers best.
Some people say that that tray became the stage for placing rings at their wedding.
Some people say that bowl accompanied them through the lonely days of studying abroad.
Some people also say that when they make coffee in the morning and see that faint glaze color, they feel that the whole day has become gentle.

These feedbacks made her realize that what she was doing was not just an object, but a container for memory.
They hold not only food and accessories, but also the peace of life and the weight of emotions.

Conclusion: Leave a little warmth for the world

In studiobrosia's studio, there are no assembly lines and no molds for mass production.
Only a pair of hands, a heart, a pile of mud, and a ball of fire.

She said, "I hope people can see the poetry of life in these small objects.
Find the warmth of companionship at the dining table, store the little universe of the heart in the tray, and place the softest love on the ring holder.

studiobrosia is more than just a brand.
It is more like a gentle messenger, telling the world in the language of pottery:
True happiness lies in the light and shadow of daily life.

When you touch its works and see the fine glaze and imperfect lines,
You will understand --
The significance of handicrafts has never been manufacturing but transmission.

That is a warmth, spreading from the soil to the heart.
This is the story of studiobrosia - a place that warms life with pottery.
