I am an artist and designer of original one-of-a-kind wonderfully functional dishes, bowls, and platters. I was and am a painter first, but one day I stumbled upon beautiful unglazed Italian ceramics - blank white and ready to be painted and transformed. I thought about what I would like in my house, what would delight, amuse, and engage my senses.

I learned as I experimented, and when people started to buy the plates off my table, Dish Studio was born. Every piece is unique, front and back, and hand patterned, painted, glazed, and fired in my studio in Aspen, Colorado. I delight in the differences in every place setting, so that each stack of dishes, each place at the table, has its own poetry. No two are exactly alike.

I welcome discussion about design, color, and configuration of place settings. I'll listen and interpret. Most orders take three months to fill. To receive more information, or discuss a commission email me at jody@dishstudio.com.
