OUR STORY

Harmonia Ceramics was founded by ceramic artist, marketer, writer & music journalist Laura Ferreiro. As soon as Laura put her hands on the cool clay and the pottery wheel started spinning, she was hooked. Laura typically spends a lot of time at the computer for her work, so interacting with raw earth from the ground felt amazing.

Working on the wheel also requires intense focus because one wrong move can throw everything off, so cares and worries fade into the background as you concentrate on shaping the smooth clay into a cup, bowl, planter or vase.

As a former music journalist and a music lover, the names of many of these pieces are inspired by Laura's favorite artists and albums.

She also loves how handmade ceramics can create community. Whether it’s using these pieces in group gatherings, to give someone flowers, in tea ceremonies, or interacting with the community of potters around Los Angeles & beyond who share techniques & support one another’s work, it’s one of the things she values most.

​

When Laura isn’t making ceramics at her studio in Los Angeles, she’s hiking the canyons near her house, making tea and plant-based tonics and helping artists, nonprofits, brands and entrepreneurs powerfully share their stories.
