Sante Salvoni is originally from Cape Cod, MA and has made the Bay Area his home since 1995. As a potter and chef, he creates sturdy functional tableware designed for daily use. Lately, he’s been inspired to combine both wheel thrown and handbuilt techniques, and strives to create forms that invite you to pick them up in your hands. As a potter that comes to ceramics as a second career, Sante believes his experience cooking in restaurant kitchens informs all the artistic choices he makes today. Having returned from a long hiatus at ceramics in 2015, Sante has been a student, then member, and instructor of multiple Bay Area Studios over the years. Although he makes pieces that are are to be used every day, and that the pieces are dishwasher safe, he acknowledges they don’t always fit in the dishwasher correctly.
