Dimitris Papailias

Sway Ceramics is a London-based studio rooted in process, rhythm, and material honesty.

Founded by Dimitris, the practice explores the quiet tension between movement and stillness — drawing from architecture, natural forms, and the subtle rituals of daily life.

Each piece is hand made in small batches in the heart of Dalston, East London. With a focus on tactile simplicity, sculptural balance, and natural variation, the work sits somewhere between functional design and quiet art object — always intended to be lived with.

Sway Ceramics offers a growing collection of vessels and tableware, while also working on commissions and collaborations.

The studio occasionally opens its doors for workshops and open weekends — offering a slower, more personal way of sharing the work.
