Mackenzie Vaughan Pikaart is a ceramic artist based in Philadelphia who’s works are intended to be used in your home. Her Nerikomi agate surfaces act as a marking of time, a key to one's life experiences rooted in memory.

Her Dinnerware, vases, Lighting and other works are designed for daily use, each piece becomes part of personal moments and shared experiences.

Mackenzie holds a BFA in Crafts/Ceramics from The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, where she lives and works. In her logo, and below you see an ESTD. 1996, this date refers to Mackenzie’s first memory of loving art. She was in second grade (for the second time) and it was invigorating! In addition to her studio practice, she is a ceramics educator, consultant, and wholesaler.
