What is the difference between a ceramicist and a potter?
1 Answer
The difference between a ceramicist and a potter comes down to what they make. A potter produces dishes, drinkware, vases and other decorative objects out of earthenware. These types of articles are called pottery. A ceramicist is someone who makes ceramic items. While some ceramicists are also potters, artisans who use this title may make other things, such as sculptures or bathroom fixtures. Find a collection of pottery and other ceramics on 1stDibs.
