Raya Duryea started Sandstone Ceramics in the fall of 2021. What started as a hobby has turned into an ongoing passion project that cultivates creativity and freedom in the medium of functional pottery.

Each handmade piece is intended to enhance moments of life that typically happen around food and drink. Inspired by the connection that sharing a meal with another person can create, Raya focuses on functional ceramics that can double as a piece art to add depth, value, joy and simplicity to everyday moments.
