Who is rookwood

All art pottery and architectural tile are manufactured in-house by our talented team of artists and employees. As a piece cycles through the building, it touches at least thirteen sets of hands from start to finish. The design process for every Rookwood project begins with pencil and paper. Our talented artists are tasked with designing initial concepts that include key elements to the piece before beginning to work in clay.

The piece is then carved into a three dimensional form, and a plaster mold is created from the final piece. Rookwood uses plaster molds to individually cast ceramic pieces by hand. A liquid form of clay that is formulated from minerals directly from the earth is then poured into the plaster mold. This liquid clay, called slip, is then set into a solid state after the plaster pulls the moisture from it. This first firing removes all chemically bonded water from the clay, creating a ceramic material that is then ready for glaze to be applied.
