Guided by the idea of people gathering and sharing moments around a common table, The Clay Assemblage was founded in 2020 by Bilgin Bernard, a London-based graphic designer and art director.
Her pieces are made with the conviction that the things inhabiting our everyday lives should be objects of beauty, made with care and created to last. This results in both functional and sculptural objects which can be shared and passed down to subsequent generations. Her working process aims to refine shapes and celebrate the natural, inherent texture of the clay. Each small imperfection or irregularity marks the particularity of the piece and lends honesty to its beauty.
