Welcome to ZimmerClayWorks
Austin Zimmer's pottery and sculpture is made with 100% porcelain clay and is fired to a very high temperature, which helps make it particularly durable. All utilitarian pieces (cups, bowls, platters, etc.) are microwave and dishwasher safe. Glazes are certified as food-safe.
Austin was raised on a small island in the South Pacific, Tonga, where he acquired a deep appreciation for handcrafted items at an early age. The human figure and natural world have consistently supplied him with inspiration for new forms and designs. The utilitarian aspect of the piece remains a central concern; form must work in concert with function. Austin also enjoys integrating a sense of movement, animation and whimsy into his finished works.
Fundamentally, Austin's goal is to create work that enriches the daily ritual of food preparation, presentation and the aesthetics of living.
Austin sells the majority of his work directly at craft shows. A limited number of items will be made available online starting July 1st, 2022.
