Specialization in Creative Design of Ceramic Flower Pots

Clara Gutiérrez, better known as Clarina, started out as an art historian, but that all changed once she began taking ceramic classes. After studying to be a ceramist at the school of Arts et Techniques Céramiques in Paris, she opened her own studio in Madrid in 2020. She uses this space to teach ceramic classes and work on a wide variety of projects, both personal and professional.

Her goal is to create pieces with a modern and minimalist design that brighten up everyday life. Her collections include crockery, decorative pieces, and even fashion jewelry. Her designs can be found in stores across Spain and France, in addition to her own brick-and-mortar and online store.

From the moment she was born, Coralí Lecca Céspedes was surrounded by the clay, pigments, and glazes of her mother's ceramic workshop. Despite this, she decided to study sound engineering and worked as video and animations for more than 10 years. It wasn't until 2014 that she began collaborating with her mother. She also started her Instagram account @Coraceramics as a blog exploring the world of clay and everything it has to offer.

After working in her family workshop for some time she decided to set up her own, start a brand, and put together a team. Coraceramics came to be out of a love for both ceramics and family, from a fascination that awakens the imagination and leads to the creation of pieces that will stand the test of time.

In 2016 they were awarded the prize for the best artisan brand in Catalonia, Spain.
