About the Artist:

Fettle Studio is a creative venture run by Lydia, focusing on architectural projects for homes and communities, as well as ceramics for tableware, artworks and interiors. Particularly special in Lydia's work is when her two disciplines come together... An architectural project perhaps inspiring a new ceramic vessel or pattern... or when her ceramics become a feature in a client's new home. Texture, light and space are all regular playmates in Lydia's projects, whether creating designs for a family home or crafting a ceramic lampshade.
