Have you ever seen Georgie Gardiner’s Peel and Reveal videos?

Georgie uses a paper resist decorating technique where shapes of paper are placed onto clay to block glaze or slip. Once the surface is coated, the paper is peeled away to reveal the layer beneath, leaving behind crisp patterns and striking contrasts.

When was the last time you bought something handmade?

In a world full of mass-produced objects, there’s something deeply meaningful about choosing an urn that carries the touch, time, and story of its maker. Handmade work isn’t just an object, it’s connection, care, and craftsmanship woven into form.

At urn studios, we’re proud to work with artists who pour their skill and heart into every urn, creating pieces that are as unique as the lives they honour.
