Spanish: shadow // shade // trace, sign
Our name SOMBRA comes from the traces of process that imbue handmade objects — raked textures, the swirl of poured glaze, a subtle fingerprint. These lingering gestures infuse each handmade piece with a sense of life. The dedication and passion that go into their making endure. This practice is about that long shadow of transformation — from idea to design, amorphous clay to sculpted form, mud to stone.
