Leti Ceramics was founded by two artists — a sculptor and a painter — brought together by a shared fascination with form, colour and character.
Together, they create sculptural ceramic objects where traditional craftsmanship meets expressive contemporary art.
Each piece carries an idea, a story and a touch of humour — shaped by hand and reimagined through our own artistic language.

The Art of Ceramics The History of Passion
OUR STORY
Leti began with Lera and Timur, who met while studying at the Surikov Art Academy. Lera trained as a monumental painter, while Timur studied sculpture.
Ceramics became the place where their two disciplines could meet: sculptural form gives each piece its presence, while painting brings colour, expression and personality.
What began as a shared creative experiment gradually grew into Leti Ceramics — a studio devoted to creating objects that sit somewhere between functional design and collectible art.

WHO WE ARE
The name LeTi comes from the first letters of Lera and Timur — the two people behind the studio.
What began as a personal name gradually became the identity of a creative world built around curiosity, imagination and the pleasure of making things by hand.

A Name with a Story.
THE NAME
Every Leti piece begins in the studio, where ideas are translated into sculptural form by hand. Shapes are developed, refined and assembled before moving through the different stages of the ceramic process.
It is a working studio rather than a production line — a place for experimentation, craftsmanship and the small decisions that give every finished piece its own character.

INSIDE THE STUDIO
Every piece begins with material and the work of human hands. Clay, porcelain, ceramic slips and glazes are shaped into sculptural forms before being fired, painted and carefully finished.
Selected pieces also incorporate decorative finishes such as gold or silver. Small variations in form, colour and brushwork are part of the process — and part of what makes every Leti piece individual.

PAINTING & GLAZING
PAINTING & GLAZING
Colour, expression and decorative details are applied by hand.
Art history has always been part of Leti’s visual language. Familiar portraits, paintings and cultural references become starting points rather than images to simply reproduce.
Through sculptural form, colour and a touch of humour, they are reimagined as ceramic objects that feel recognisable yet unmistakably Leti.
From surrealism to classical portraiture, every collection becomes our own conversation with art.

OUR INSPIRATION
Most Leti Ceramics pieces are made to order, allowing each one to be created individually rather than taken from mass-produced stock.
Selected designs can also be customized with different colours and decorative details, giving you the opportunity to make an existing Leti piece more personal.
Created slowly, made personally, and designed to feel uniquely yours.
