Take an incredible journey of TerraKlay. Our vibrant artisans embody the interconnectedness of our world. They are handcrafted by skilled creators from Tunisia, India, Guatemala, and Peru weaving together stories of love and dedication. Each product holds a tale of its artisan, the community it originates from, or the timeless techniques used in its creation. Every TerraKlay piece has a voice, whispering of the hands that shaped it with soulful artistry.
Hand woven colorful textiles, woodcarvings, blown glass, and many other handcrafts are an important part of the country's heritage. We have been able to forge partnerships with two artisan groups that work with mediums honoring their history and traditions.
At TerraKlay, we collaborate with five artisan groups in India, ranging from handlooming to natural dyeing and handmade ceramics. These groups are primarily composed of women artisans, who are the backbone of our operations. India, renowned for its rich textile heritage and skilled craftsmanship, provides the perfect backdrop for our work.
TerraKlay collaborates with Yanesha artisans in Peru to create its stunning range of handmade wooden bowls. Nestled deep in the Amazonian forest, these skilled craftsmen transform locally sourced wood into exquisite bowls and wooden trenches. Each piece is meticulously carved from a single block of wood, showcasing the unique textures and colors of the Amazon.
TerraKlay collaborates with a women artisan group in Tunisia to create its exquisite ceramics collection. Nestled deep in the heart of Tunisia, this studio was founded in 2009 out of a deep appreciation for Mediterranean dishes and the vision to share them with European and American markets. The artisans blend traditional designs and motifs with a contemporary flair, resulting in vibrant mandala-like patterns and bold stripes that adorn each piece. Crafted to be both dishwasher and oven safe, these ceramics merge practicality with artistic beauty.
The 8,000 square foot studio is a creative sanctuary where over a dozen artisans carefully hand-paint each line, dot, and stroke onto the white clay dishes.
