Our Story & Studio
Where Earth Meets Fire In Crafting Beauty From Clay
Urth & Phire Ceramic Studio is more than just a pottery studio, it’s a creative haven based in Singapore founded by ceramic artist Alvin Leow. The name, a clever play on “earth and fire,” hints at the transformative process of ceramics: raw clay meets a kiln’s blaze.
Founded in 2017, we embrace curiosity, experimentation, and a refreshing blend of ancient craft with modern creativity, all within a calm, inspiring space that encourages self-expression and artistic growth.
Whether you're curious, enthusiastic, or already hooked, you’ll fit right in. From experimental beginner sessions to advanced mentorship and independent practice, Urth & Phire is where clay enthusiasts come to learn, create, and belong.
Taught by makers, designed for growth, transparent and personal in a trusted space
Every session is led by practicing potters and ceramic artists who share grounded studio techniques and insights. Our structured lesson path takes you from beginner fundamentals through advanced mastery, with transparent pricing and intentionally small class sizes that ensure personalized, hands-on guidance.
Since 2017, we've cultivated a supportive community of makers and artists—many who continue their creative journey with us year after year, growing both their skills and connections within our studio family.
