The maker
Hi, I’m Kata — this is my workshop
I started twelve years ago on a rented wheel; today three of us work in a small studio by the Danube Bend. We shape, fire and pack every mug, bowl and board ourselves. No two pieces are alike — and that is the point.
„Imperfection is the signature of a handmade object.”
