About Karin Ostendorf Ceramics
Karin Ostendorf produces handcrafted ceramic objects in Bad Vilbel. The range includes vases, bowls, raku pieces and other free-form objects, created as one-of-a-kind items or in combinations. Production takes place as a sole-proprietor business in the owner's own studio; a particular focus is the raku firing, a ceramic technique that creates characteristic surface structures. The products are presented on the company's own website and are aimed at customers from the arts and crafts sector. The workshop can be reached by telephone or via a mail form; appointments can be arranged individually. No information on production volumes, machinery or certifications is provided on the website.
