Rachel is the Maker behind Etta Rain Ceramics, named in memory of her beloved grandmother. With a background in photography, she holds a Master’s Degree in Fine Art from the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Rachel spent many years working as a photographer, specialising in traditional darkroom techniques. However, as digital photography took over, she yearned to return to a more tactile, hands-on craft. This led her to ceramics, where she has spent the past several years learning and refining her skills. Today, Rachel is happiest with her hands in clay, creating pieces that bring both beauty and function into everyday life. She takes pride in the intimate process of crafting each piece, ensuring that every creation is one-of-a-kind, reflecting her dedication to her craft.
