Global Ceramic Materials Suppliers
Lots of people ask me where I get my clay, glaze, etc. Well the truth is, what I use isn’t that special at all.
Ceramics is very localized. Every culture has their own pottery traditions, techniques, and special materials. And because the clay we dig from the earth is different all over the world, I invite you to embrace the local clays & traditions in your area. Not to mention the environmental footprint of shipping such heavy materials all over the world, when you can easily find them in your own backyard!
So I wanted to create a list of ceramic materials suppliers so that you can use your local clays! If you really want to know where I get my materials, just scroll down to the Germany section.
This is a living document that I will update regularly as I hear about more suppliers! If you know a supplier that is not on this list, please email me mia@potterytothepeople.com so I can add it :)
