Located in the heart of the Cayuga Wine Trail, our studio is situated in a beautiful "Red Barn" overlooking Cayuga Lake, just 3 miles North of Taughannock Park in Trumansburg, NY.

Our studio is led by Vera D. Vico, a talented ceramic artist born and raised in Rome, Italy. With over 30 years of experience, Vera has honed her skills in creating functional, decorative, and sculptural ceramics that are not only beautiful but also lead-free, dishwasher, and microwave safe. Each piece is carefully crafted with attention to detail, ensuring that every piece is a testament to Vera's artistry and dedication to her craft.

About the Artist

Vera D. Vico was born and raised in Rome, Italy, where she was constantly surrounded by art and beauty. Growing up, she was fascinated by the simple, fluid shapes of clay vessels used by her grandparents on the Island of Sicily. After moving to the U.S., Vera began taking ceramic classes, and it was love at first sight. Over the years, she has exhibited and participated in numerous solo and group shows, and has taught ceramics to students of all ages.
