Lauren Young Ceramics is a small ceramic art studio. She makes beautiful handmade tableware and display pieces. They are made and created on Waiheke Island.
The talented ceramic artist and owner is Lauren. After working in corporate communications for many years, she decided a change of scenery was what she needed in her life and ceramic making was calling her name. She learnt how to make ceramics on a clay wheel, slab and a variety of molds.
