MEET THE MAKER
Eren Armitage
JEren Armitage is a ceramicist originally from Yokohama, Japan, now practising from a quiet studio in the English countryside. Her work draws equally on her Japanese heritage and the natural rhythms of her adopted landscape, resulting in stoneware and porcelain vessels that balance form and surface. Each piece invites a moment of stillness—objects made for use, but also for reflection.
Eren’s path into ceramics began while working in community studios, where she first developed an interest in the dialogue between material and maker. Over time she established her own workspace in a converted mill, surrounded by long fields and shifting weather that continue to influence her approach.
Her practice bridges tradition and experimentation: the precision of Japanese making meeting the elemental forces of nature. This is expressed through quiet materials, measured rhythm, and a sense of enduring presence. She works in small, intentional batches, refining wheel-thrown forms by hand and favouring muted palettes that allow texture and detail to take the lead. Collections are released a few times each year through her website and tend to sell out quickly.
“I want my pieces to feel grounded and unforced. They’re made to be held, rinsed, set down, and folded into the simple repetitions of the day. When the work disappears into someone’s home life, that’s when it’s doing its job.”
—Eren Armitage
Her vessels are often described as minimal and functional, but their quietness is deliberate—a way of letting the clay, the firing, and the landscape speak with subtle clarity.
