Lois Aronow is best known for her tactile porcelain tableware, which incorporates clean lines with modern texture. A working artist for 20 years, Lois always had a lifelong obsession with "making things". 

Influenced by Antonio Gaudi, Eva Zeisel, and mid century studio forms, her work looks toward organic shapes, vivid color, and texture for inspiration.  Her signature “Beady” glaze is tactile and begs to be touched.  

A native New Yorker, Lois attended NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. She began a career that  morphed from radio to television programming, working for years programming the music for VH1. In the mid 90s, Lois moved to London, launching and programming VH1 UK. 

During her years living in London, Lois found herself surrounded by a rich history in pottery and tableware design.  “The British consider ceramics a fine art as well as a craft. I found myself constantly exposed to wonderful antique and contemporary work. I fell head over heels in love.”  She knew innately that "following the clay" become her next act. Upon returning to the states a few years later, she dove in to making full time.

“My work is made to be used and enjoyed.   I want my work to be part of people’s everyday lives. That little something that contributes to the uniqueness of one’s surroundings.” Lois hand-makes all her work in her Brooklyn, NY studio. She is also an avid knitter and handspinner, a maker of messes, and a damn fine cook.  She still loves the music, which blasts through her Gowanus, Brooklyn studio constantly.
