Setsuko, the artist behind Astier de Villatte’s distinctive ceramics, models pieces such as the Smoking Cat incense holder, the five-branched candelabra, and the essential palette/chopping board, rendered in white enamel or raw clay with subtle hints of color. Her work embodies a delicate balance of functionality, artistry, and understated charm, reflecting the atelier’s dedication to timeless design.

Founded in 1996, Astier de Villatte is a Parisian atelier dedicated to preserving and reimagining tradition. Its ceramics workshop updates 18th-century Parisian techniques, while its suburban printing press, the last in France, continues the art of lead-type books. The publishing house has produced Ma Vie à Paris, Drawings with Lou Doillon, and a new edition of Mitsou by Balthus. Its perfume studio partners with master noses to create colognes, skincare, incense, gums, and a candle collection inspired by scents from around the world.

Handmade in Paris, every ceramic is stamped with the Astier de Villatte monogram and the initials of the artisan who crafted it, reflecting the atelier’s dedication to individuality and tradition.
