We are A095, a pottery studio based in Basel, Switzerland.
Our work combines a deep appreciation for detail with the warmth of handmade craftsmanship. Inspired by East Asian pottery artists, we’ve spent the past four years refining our techniques—exploring materials, different glazes, and perfecting the balance between function and design.
Behind these creations are Jana and Kenan, partners in life and art, living and working together in Basel. Our shared journey began with a mutual curiosity for pottery, evolving into a collaborative practice. Over the years, we’ve continuously challenged each other to explore new techniques, refine our skills, and push the boundaries of our ideas. And yes, we’ve failed—a lot. But each failure has taught us something valuable, pushing us to grow and improve.
Much of our inspiration comes from using our tableware in everyday life, testing how shapes and designs integrate seamlessly into our routines—whether it’s serving dinner or enjoying coffee. This hands-on approach has shown us that our style and needs are constantly evolving, making the process of creating both dynamic and personal.
We are excited to finally share our work from the past two years, including a selection of archival pieces alongside our latest creations. This collection of unique tableware has been thoughtfully designed and carefully crafted in our studio by the Rhine. Each piece reflects our love for creating functional art that brings joy to simple, everyday moments—whether it’s sharing a meal or enjoying a cup of coffee.
If our work resonates with you, we’d love to connect. We are open for ideas, commissioned projects or collaborations, feel free to reach out.
Our online shop is coming soon—stay tuned!
