ABOUT
With a moniker translating to “dumb ceramics”, Swedish label DUM KERAMIK crafts cheeky, lighthearted ceramic pieces that defy convention. Founded by former industrial designer Siri Skillgate, DUM KERAMIK began as a sustainable design experiment and a bold response to the minimalism dominating her previous field.
Driven by a desire to challenge predefined rules, DUM KERAMIK has gained recognition for its bold, limited-edition collections of collectible ceramics that spark conversation. From playful imagery embedded in rugged, hand-sculpted forms to vessels cast in molds where excess clay is left untouched, each piece embodies a playful rebellion.
From irregular vases to tableware featuring the brand’s signature distorted smiley faces and cartoonish characters, every piece is meticulously handcrafted in our Stockholm studio. These creations serve as testaments to the beauty of imperfection and celebrations of individuality, thoughtfully designed to resonate with those who seek character and distinction in their surroundings.
Raw and fluid, DUM KERAMIK’s work offers a distinctive commentary on art and design, inviting its audience to embrace boldness, imperfection, and playfulness.
