About the studio
GLINCA is a small pottery studio making functional and decorative ceramics — mugs, bowls, vases, plates and other pieces. Because every piece is handmade, no pieces are exactly alike. Nothing here is mass-produced, so quantities are genuinely limited: once a bowl sells, that exact bowl is gone.
About me
Hi I am Paulina, the hands behind GLINCA. By day corporate girl, potter by heart. I’ve always loved art, which eventually led me to ceramics. I have spent the last 4 years hand-building and throwing on the wheel in Barcelona, slowly turning a hobby into this project.
Living by the Mediterranean, I find a lot of my inspiration in the sea, and you'll see it in many of my pieces. And between us, there is something pretty awesome about making art that you can actually use every day.
Why GLINCA? In Polish, clay is glina. We Poles have a habit of making everything sound cuter, so it often becomes glinka, roughly "little clay." I swapped the k for a c, and GLINCA was born.
