Atelier Lālmitti
Handmade pottery for everyday life, with a colour palette that is minimalistic yet striking. Our hand-painted decorations take inspiration from our surroundings in the mountains. We enjoy working in small series and creating one-off pieces that will bring joy to your home.
Pottery in the mountains
A clay studio located in the village of Andretta, in the heart of the Indian Himalayas, near Dharamshala
handmade pottery
All our pieces are made and decorated by hand in our mountain studio. Combining simple and elegant forms with whimsical decorations, our work is cheerful and friendly, ideal to turn daily occasions into special moments. We believe that handmade pottery enhances everyday life, and makes drinks and food taste better.
studio
The name Atelier Lālmitti reflects the diversity of our setup. Atelier is ‘studio’ in French, while Lālmitti translates both as ‘precious clay’ in Persian and ‘red clay’ in Hindi. The studio is run by Élodie Alexandre and Reyaz Badaruddin, a ceramic artist duo from France and India. Beside their small production pottery, they also offer teaching and mentorship programmes.
Commissions
We welcome commissions for name plates according to your requirements, within our aesthetics.
