Elizabeth Schlatter

For more than 30 years, Elizabeth Schlatter has been dedicated to promoting, researching, teaching, and engaging with creativity. As a ceramicist under the label C-Suite Ceramics, Schlatter makes playful, functional pottery designed to brighten everyday life. Working primarily with wheel-thrown forms and tape-resist surface design, she focuses on pieces that are both visually engaging and functional—designed to support small moments of care at home, at work, and in between

In 2025, she became a certified personal trainer, and she now works at the Northside and Downtown Richmond YMCAs. Her interest in body mechanics and pottery-making led her to create The Aligned Potter, a free online resource that explores ergonomics, injury prevention, and sustainable movement practices for ceramic makers.
