Master Japanese Potter Akio Nukaga at Heath Cermics Today

Last December LAist got a sneak peek into Heath LA. The new flagship store planned to bring the ceramic artsits from around the world. This weekend they are following through on that promise by showing the work of Akio Nukaga.

               

Since 1948 Heath Ceramics has been an icon of California design. In 2003, husband and wife team, Robin Petravic and Catherine Bailey, purchased the company. Their shared mission was to revitalize the company, by placing a strong emphasis on design, while preserving Edith Heath’s handcrafted techniques and legacy. They continue to make the classic designs and new ones with the highest level of craftsmanship and quality.

We’ve forged a partnership with potter Adam Silverman (Atwater Pottery) to launch a new retail studio in Los Angeles this December. Our new Los Angeles outpost is located at 7525 Beverly Boulevard (at Sierra Bonita Avenue) in the central Los Angeles design district. The new LA facility is our second retail store after our original factory store opened in 1948 in Sausalito. Along with a retail store, we will also offer a gallery and studio that will focus on ceramic research and small run, custom work.
