Entranced by throwing clay on the potter's wheel and honing the chemical complexities of the materials she works with, the work of ceramicist Rachel Green is considered down to every detail.

Made in small batches, her practice reflects a consideration of each piece's place in our homes and hands, ensuring its shape is well thought out and functions well. Not only is Green's work designed for durability in everyday use, but with the employment of meticulously custom-formulated glazes, each piece is also wholly unique and spirited on its surface. The resulting work is beautifully subdued, evoking memories of coastlines and tumbled river stones.

Now based in Portland, Oregon, Rachel splits her time between her home studio and wood-firing work deep in the woods of Willamina.
