Welcome to PotterAsh! potterash.com
I’m Ashot Mkrtchyan, a ceramic artist from Yerevan, Armenia. My journey with clay began in childhood under the guidance of my father, the esteemed Armenian potter Tatul Mkrtchyan. His unique style and dedication to the craft deeply influenced me. After his passing in 1997, I committed myself to continuing his legacy.
With over 27 years of experience in pottery, I achieved a significant milestone in 2019 by earning a Master’s degree in ceramics in Armenia. This accomplishment has further enriched my understanding and appreciation of the art form.
At PotterAsh, every piece is handcrafted with care and precision. Our collection features a variety of items, including pomegranate-shaped sugar bowls, wedding favors, ceramic cups, and unique aquarium decorations..
My wife, Nana, plays an integral role in our creative process. She specializes in designing and handcrafting our aquarium decorations, bringing her own artistic flair to each piece. Her contributions add a distinctive touch to our offerings.
We are passionate about sharing the beauty of Armenian ceramics with the world. Thank you for visiting our store, and we hope our creations bring warmth and artistry into your life.
Warm regards,
Ashot Mkrtchyan & Nana Vanesyan
