MEET HP

Halfpint Ceramics is a Toronto-based studio producing small-batch pottery.
Founded in 2022 by Amanda Loparco, her work balances precision with the unpredictability of clay. Each piece is made with close attention to form, weight, and finish — objects designed to be used daily and appreciated over time.
Amanda also runs a private studio in Toronto’s Junction Triangle, supporting a community of artists working across multiple disciplines.

FORM - ONLY COMMISSIONS AVAILABLE
Preparing for a large sale, wholesale order, or special event? I’m available for form-only commissions, creating ceramic forms to your specifications and supplying them bisque-fired and ready to glaze. Branding or stamping with the commissioning artist’s mark can be accommodated upon request. No credit to HPC is due - let me help speed up your production times and profit! Get in touch to learn more.
