About
Welcome to Ruffshuffler Ceramics – where artistry meets passion, and clay becomes a canvas for creativity.
Founded by the talented Robyn Smith-Clark in the picturesque landscapes of New Zealand, our studio embodies a legacy of craftsmanship and a commitment to fostering a vibrant ceramic community.
Robyn's journey into the world of ceramics began in 1973 when she was introduced to this timeless art form by the esteemed Roy Evans in Henderson, Auckland. From that moment, her hands have shaped, molded, and transformed clay into exquisite pieces of art. With dedication and a profound love for her craft, Robyn has earned a well-deserved reputation as a professional ceramics artist.
Over the years, Robyn's artistic prowess has been showcased through numerous exhibitions, with Melbourne bearing witness to the beauty she creates with her hands. Ruffshuffler Ceramics has also found a home in gallery sales and retail outlets across Australia, making its mark on the broader artistic landscape.
In 2023, Robyn Smith-Clark returned to her roots in New Zealand with a mission close to her heart – to share her wealth of knowledge, expertise, and contagious enthusiasm for ceramics with the community in Christchurch.
