A course by Coralí Lecca Céspedes
From the moment she was born, Coralí Lecca Céspedes was surrounded by the clay, pigments, and glazes of her mother's ceramic workshop. Despite this, she decided to study sound engineering and worked as video and animations for more than 10 years. It wasn't until 2014 that she began collaborating with her mother. She also started her Instagram account @Coraceramics as a blog exploring the world of clay and everything it has to offer.
After working in her family workshop for some time she decided to set up her own, start a brand, and put together a team. Coraceramics came to be out of a love for both ceramics and family, from a fascination that awakens the imagination and leads to the creation of pieces that will stand the test of time.
