Hello! My name is Sophie and I’ve created ceramics for a while now.
My daily focus is to create custom made collections for restaurants.
Besides that I adore “spreading the ceramics love” through workshops in my atelier.

People in Belgium hoping to wake up tomorrow like:
“Woke up today and the sun was shining
I said Mr. Sun
Where have you been?” 😳

A couple of weeks ago I announced the end of my atelier. That also means the end of my life as a ceramist. Seems heavier seeing that one written down then saying it out loud. But I’m going all in. Beautiful years behind me, next level dreams in front of me!
Special thanks to my husband who is hearing me out patiently for months now, who is a true example as an entrepreneur and the one standing next to me just like I stand by him. (Super cheesy opening dance on our wedding by the way!) (Stand by me, Ben E. King 🫣).
•
Tonight will be the very last workshop that I will host. A private group workshop of ten people joining me tonight. This will be one of the first “last” things I’ll do until the end of June. Mid-june I’ll organise a final shopping day, one week before I close the atelier forever.
More info about that soon.
•
Also a big thank you for all the kind messages, mails, dm’s, handwritten cards 🥹,… Hope to take you with me on my next rainbow.

Thanks @laurentpoulet
Thank you customers and chefs

Not today but months ago I made the decision, I overtought at least a thousand times, today it’s time to reveal.

Timing, it’s all about timing. Never the right moment for this kind of news but here it is.

Years ago when I started with 10kg of clay, a plastic folding table and a second hand turning wheel I dreamt about the possibility to create ceramics for restaurants. Today I mainly create ceramics for fine-dining restaurants and my last job will be for a two Michelin starred restaurant. I made it. From my garage to a beautiful studio, orders from great chefs, dozens of demands for collabs, fully booked workshops, the most talented assistant, a beautiful website and very loyal customers.

The circle is complete. I feel complete. I made it. It’s time to jump into the next chapter. But I prefer to call it my next rainbow. Not much more I can share with you about this new rainbow yet but you’ll be one of the first to know about it. Don’t worry if you booked a workshop with me, all planned workshops will be organised. A business built with a lot of love and energy will not end overnight.

My atelier will close in July and won’t re-open again.
Good things are coming up but making ceramics ain’t part of it.

Since my next rainbow won’t need kilns, turning wheels, shelves, plaster molds, glazes, brushes, boards, etc
I will organize a sale of my material or maybe you would like to take my place in my studio, we can talk about that also.

A shopping day with the final pieces of ceramics will also be organized before summer in my atelier and a selection will be online.

Most grateful for this rainbow, thank you for your support, customers and chefs.

Catch of the day 🐡. Plates for a michelin starred restaurant @restostoveke near my atelier. I recently started to fire these large plates on sand. Some extra cleaning work but definitely worth the try when you’re firing plates.
This sand can be find @colpaertvanleemputten and can be reused over and over again.

Prototyping for a two-Michelinstarred restaurant from Luxemburg. Hasty actions are not rewarded in this craftsmanship. Valued lesson I learned over the years of creating pieces for restaurants. Measure, rethink, build, measure again, overthink, rebuild and be patient while drying. “Terra incognita” on the menu for this order of over 120 pieces. Thanks for the trust @ma_langue_sourit

They differ before and after firing. Just like we do after ski holidays. Bruises on our legs but wide awake after a week of sport and long nights catching all the sleep we missed out before.
But for now I’ve seen enough snow, spring can jump in and these winecoolers can come out of my freezer to welcome the first rays of sun next week!

Breaddishes made out of black lava clay, fired once at 960 degrees, glazed in a complete opposite colour, fired again at 1240 degrees and crocodile dishes sneaked out of the kiln. 🐊⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ideal to serve an amuse bouche or to use as a breaddish. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

If someone makes you feel small it’s because of their own insecurities.
Hope they’ll remember that when they grow older and find out the world isn’t that gentle after all. 🫶🏼⚫️⚫️⚫️⚫️

Have you been to @dunasdine yet? I’m having dinner over there this weekend. Again 🫠😅 . What’s better to eat from my own plates without cooking. If you’re looking for some excellent cuisine and inspiring womanpower visit Dunas with chef Fran and host Janna, they are doing a magnificent job!
