ABOUT PARTICLE CERAMICS

Particle Ceramics is a small-batch ceramics studio founded by Joanna Thatcher, a ceramicist and fine artist. Set in the countryside of West Franklin, Tennessee, the studio is a space for making pottery, teaching, and sharing the joy of working with clay.

The working studio is set up for both ceramic production and teaching.

We would love to welcome you in our space.

Each piece is made by hand, just for you. Our collections are created in small-batches with the natural variations that make every piece uniquely yours. We also carry a limited selection of ready-to-purchase pieces at our studio.
