The Hands Behind the Craft:

Celebrating the Legacy of Bernardo Camacho Quiroz

This collection celebrates the life and work of Bernardo Camacho Quiroz, a fourth-generation ceramist from Metepec, México, who began shaping clay at the age of six and dedicated his life to the craft. His spirit lives on through his pottery and the cultural heritage he helped preserve.

Bernardo shared his work internationally, exhibiting glossy hand-painted dishes, clay stoves, and other functional yet decorative pieces. In 2014, he earned a Guinness World Record for creating the world’s largest clay cazuela.
