Why.
It’s a fine line to walk: loving quality material goods while struggling with the consumer culture that claims you need them to feel like a whole human being. For our part, we started this company to find some peace within that polarity. Supper Club was the brainchild of two friends who, after years of experience in different industries, were both weary of doing anything that didn’t yield tangible beauty or functionality. Our mutual obsession with aesthetics and utility, combined with our love of food culture, led us to pottery and tableware—a perfect blend of both worlds. Fueled by a combined passion for design and function, with backgrounds in tech and fine art, Supper Club emerged as an intersection of digital precision and traditional artistry.
We believe that the objects surrounding us—the ones that provide basic utility—are often the most important and, yet, the most overlooked. Supper Club was born from an idea that everyday objects should be imbued with feeling and intention—a union of art and utility so intrinsic that it seamlessly weaves into the rhythm of daily life. We’ve set out to create products with an inherent presence, a physical affinity to the surroundings. In the same way, a fast car feels fast when stationary; we look for shapes, colors, and textures that capture that feel - purposeful and beautiful, even while lying in wait for the next meal.
Justine Figura
In the heart of our bustling studio, where art meets utility, stands Justine Figura, our Head of Production. Justine is the embodiment of a paradox: a skeptic who transforms challenges into creative triumphs. Her journey to Supper Club is a testament to her relentless pursuit of excellence, a story interwoven with resilience, craftsmanship, and a dash of serendipity.
Her personal life mirrors her professional ethos. Justine crafts moments with the same care she devotes to her art, whether it’s perfecting homemade ravioli into the night or conjuring up extravagant birthday cakes that are as much a feast for the eyes as for the palate. But it wasn't just her skill in pottery that drew us to her. It was her appetite for the unknown, the unexplored paths that led her to join us at Supper Club. Here, she found not just a place to mold clay but a space to shape dreams into tangible realities.
Justine’s touch is evident in every piece that leaves our studio – each one a blend of fearlessness and finesse, mirroring her spirit. While history books may not chronicle her story, the legacy of Justine Figura is etched in every curve, angle, and texture of our creations, a silent yet eloquent testament to a life lived at the intersection of imagination and reality.
