In Mexico, Michele de Alba founded Al Centro Cerámica to connect the work of local pottery workshops with people looking for quality ceramics. Working hand in hand with artisans, she developed her own designs based on ceramic styles from the pottery traditions of Guanajuato and Jalisco.
Al Centro Cerámica selects, coordinates and designs each piece together with the artisans who make it, creating timeless dinnerware and vases. The company always cares for the making process, the characteristics of the ceramic and the capacities of the artisans who make each piece.
Al Centro Cerámica was born from a firm belief in the bond between the designer, the maker and the customer. Each piece honors artisan work as an example of kindness and integrity, the collective effort of everyone involved in its creation.
