Danny Kaplan Studio is dedicated to creating functional and decorative handcrafted ceramic works that are both ancient and modern; complex and primitive; minimalist and organic.

Founded by self-taught ceramicist Danny Kaplan in 2015, each Danny Kaplan Studio piece begins with a sketch in which form and composition play a strong and equally important role. 

Drawing inspiration from a variety of influences, including the German Modernist ceramist Hans Coper; the classic, primitive forms associated with ancient Greek, Mayan and Chinese potters; and the minimal aesthetic of French interior designer Jean-Michel Frank, the studio’s team of skilled artisans use clay that is rich in grog and grit to build structurally complex forms that stretch the bounds of sculptural design.
