Mud Witch

Viviana Matsuda — San Francisco, CA
After taking a ceramics class to work through her grief from her father’s passing, Viviana Matsuda soon started Mud Witch as both a therapeutic release and a way to create forms people connect with. She handcraft mugs, vases + planters in San Francisco and her work is brand new to the West Elm LOCAL assortment this season. Inspired by the diversity of the human form, her stoneware vases have a curvy, eye-pleasing shape.

Virginia Sin

In her Greenpoint studio, Virginia Sin designs and handcrafts American-made home goods with a whimsical use of unexpected materials, such as using clay to make trivets and wall hooks. Her latest additions to the LOCAL lineup include a clay candlestick holder, a decorative clay knot that doubles as a paperweight, “paper” plates that are actually made of porcelain. Tour Virginia Sin’s studio here.
