Welcome to the website of ceramic artist Suzanne Crane.

Suzanne produces fine, functional stoneware pottery, handmade tiles, and vessel sinks by hand in her studio in Earlysville, Virginia, not far from Charlottesville and Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello. Her work is inspired by the graphics and pottery of the Arts and Crafts movement, by the abstractions of flora and fauna in 19th century natural history book illustrations, by fractal geometry, and by her family’s interest in botany and land conservation. In collaboration with her husband, Matthew Crane, Suzanne also makes a line of fine Mission style tile-topped furniture. The Cranes welcome commissions for handmade tile murals for kitchen backsplashes, bathroom tile, tile fireplace surrounds, tile mirror surrounds, vessel sinks, tiled furniture, and floor tile applications. Crane exhibits her work locally at Mud Dauber Pottery’s gallery in Earlysville, Virginia, nationally at juried fine art and craft shows and at numerous galleries, museum shops, and kitchen and bath showrooms. Call us for your art tile and pottery needs. We are happy to work with interior designers, corporate gift buyers, architects, and funeral directors.
