A working ceramics studio above the Aegean, on the Tsagarada–Mouresi road in eastern Pelion. Classes, residency, and a small gallery shop. Founded 2014.
“Three days at ClifftopVillage and I came home with two bowls and a different relationship to my hands. Niki taught me how to centre on the second morning, after I had been swearing at the wheel for an entire day. The lunch on the terrace, with Theofilos's tomatoes, was as memorable as the throwing.”
“I was the 2024 summer resident. Five weeks, my own cottage, a single Skutt KM-1227, and the entire cliff. The Limoges porcelain that came out of cycle 058 is now in three Italian galleries. I will be back as a paying student next year.”
“I bought the Cliff Vessel No. 7 for my mother's eightieth birthday. The way the unglazed Volos red sits on the table — it is the same colour as the road from our village. She cried. So did I, a little. Worth every euro.”
“I have bought from the gallery shop four times since 2019. The Damouchari Bowl I use every Sunday for olives, and the Tsagarada espresso cups are the only ones in the house my father will drink coffee from. The wax seal on the packaging is the closest thing I have ever seen to a love letter from a small business.”
