About Studio Roka – Your Sanctuary for Pottery in Zurich
We do what we love: bringing the art of pottery closer to you.
At our studio in the midst of Zurich, it’s about more than just technique. At Studio Roka, we focus on the restorative power of working with your hands—for your body and your mind. Whether you are at the pottery wheel, practicing handbuilding, or joining one of our ceramic retreats, this is your space to create.
Here, you are invited to slow down, leave the daily grind behind, and simply be creative. Clay grounds you and brings you into the "here and now." Working with ceramics often feels truly meditative: you lose track of time, find your center, and leave not just with new skills and handmade unique pieces, but with a wonderful sense of clarity and calm.
Whether you want to learn pottery or are browsing our shop for timeless, handcrafted ceramics—Studio Roka is your destination for slow living and craftsmanship in the heart of Zurich.

Rebecca Pitterle
Instructor
Rebecca is our newest team member, and as a long-time Roka member, she was a natural choice for the role of instructor. She takes plenty of time for her students and, with her calm, empathetic manner, immediately creates a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere.
Her own artwork reflects exactly that: colorful, playful, and full of personality.
