Grumpy Girls Ceramics

Grumpy on the outside, cozy on the inside.

Grumpy Girl Ceramics is a Brooklyn studio working primarily in porcelain, offering small-batch, slip-trailed pieces with bold glazes, tiny quirks, and lots of heart.

Pieces feature hand-piped slip-trailed designs.  Slip trailing liquid porcelain onto the form leaves delicate raised marks that you can see and touch, amplified by the glaze.
