Madriguera Workshop’s eccentric characters might be the quietest guests at your next dinner party. Helmed by Lydia de la Piñera and Luis Llamas, the Galicia-based studio handcrafts a range of anthropomorphized clay pieces that are shaped into playful pots, cups, and serving ware. Tousled chives and spiked succulents become hair for the two-legged planters, while the face collection features a subtle, elegant figure with a long nose and crooked smile.

Madriguera’s face tray just was named a finalist in the 2020 Etsy Design Awards, and a few pieces are still available on Etsy and in the workshop’s store. To follow new releases and stock updates, head to Instagram.
