Lauren Burnett is the potter behind Scarabaeus Ceramics, based out of Chestertown, MD. She specializes in pottery that explores magic, myth, and mortality. She draws inspiration from the natural beauty of the Eastern Shore, and the stuff of legends farther afield. Each piece is carefully handcrafted to combine the symmetry of wheel-thrown technique with organic hand-built features. Whether ordering a cryptid cauldron set for the family, bringing home a signature sculpted insect, or commissioning a large work of art for your office space, every item receives the finest attention to detail.
