Contemporary Handcrafted Ceramics for Spaces and Projects with a Distinct Identity

We design and handcraft bespoke ceramic pieces for restaurants, interior designers, architects and brands. We also offer our own tableware collection and a selection of studio pieces available for purchase.

We work with professionals who understand the value of craftsmanship.

HOSPITALITY
Restaurants, Hotels & Dining Spaces

Tableware is the final layer of a culinary experience. We design every piece with the same intention and care that goes into creating each dish.

INTERIOR DESIGN
Interior Designers · Architects · Design Studios · Galleries

From Space to Object. We collaborate on projects where ceramics are part of the concept from the very beginning.

BRANDS Corporate Commissions · Corporate Gifts · Special Editions

Bespoke trophies, limited editions and corporate gifts that bring the value of handcrafted ceramics to a brand’s identity.

HOSPITALITY PROJECT WITH
Chef Diego René
& Estudio de interiorismo Lago Interioriza

Restaurant
René Málaga

A natural clay mural and bespoke tableware sharing the same visual language—where architecture and the table speak as one.

“The result is a project where the mural, the space and the tableware all share the same origin.”

BRAND PROJECT WITH
Cervezas Alhambra
Special Edition Collection

Alhambra
Beer

A collection of three handcrafted serving pieces, each inspired by one of the brand’s signature ingredients and the Andalusian landscape from which it originates.

“I wanted the colours of the Andalusian skies and landscapes to be beautifully reflected in every piece.”

CORPORATE BRAND PROJECT WITH
Semilla Urbana · A prestigious institutional commission for corporate recognition

Colonial
Award

A conceptual award crafted from recycled clay reclaimed from the studio, with a gold leaf core. Sustainability embedded in the material itself—not used as a marketing claim.

“What was once waste from the studio becomes the origin of the piece.”

RENACIDAS

EXCLUSIVIDAD

EXCLUSIVIDAD

Material Transformed,
Pieces That Endure

 

Renacidas is an ongoing body of work created from recycled clay reclaimed during the studio’s own making process. Each piece explores transformation, the passage of time and the enduring value of what remains.
Now part of spaces such as Hotel ME Málaga, the collection resonates with projects seeking to integrate art, sustainability and meaningful storytelling into their environments.
Si buscas una pieza que aporte identidad y esté creada con intención y compromiso,
estaremos encantados de estudiar tu proyecto.

Detrás de cada pieza, un proceso manual

María Monasterio is a ceramic artist and designer with a background in architecture.

That dual perspective—the space and the object—defines the studio’s work: ceramic pieces designed with a deep understanding of the places they are created for.

From its studio in Casabermeja, Málaga, the practice develops bespoke projects for restaurants, brands and interior designers across Spain and internationally.

The studio is supported by a multidisciplinary team united by the same approach: commitment, precision and genuine respect for every project.

Every commission begins with listening. Every piece is handcrafted. Each one emerges from an ongoing exploration of materials, textures and form, guided by the belief that ceramics are never standalone objects—they are part of a greater whole: the space, the experience and the identity of every project.

Catalogue & Shop

A catalogue of original made-to-order designs alongside collections currently available for purchase. Functional tableware, decorative objects and one-of-a-kind artworks from the Renacidas series.

Nature and the quiet beauty of everyday life are the starting point for my work. Every piece is an expression of my commitment to craftsmanship, material exploration and enduring quality.
