MEET HP

Halfpint Ceramics is a Toronto-based studio specializing in small-batch pottery, private commissions, and collaborative projects.
Founded in 2022 by Amanda Loparco, the studio produces functional ceramics and art objects that embrace both craftsmanship and experimentation. Each piece is made by hand with careful attention to form, weight, and finish — objects intended for everyday use and lasting enjoyment.
In addition to her own practice, Amanda operates a shared private studio in Toronto, supporting a community of artists working across multiple disciplines and fostering opportunities for creative collaboration.
