Vladimira Konvalinkova has thrown ceramics at her Latran studio since opening it to the public in 2001, making lighting, vases, tiles, bowls and drinking sets glazed in earth tones drawn from iron, manganese and copper oxides. She works only in originals, cutting and reshaping wheel-thrown forms and sometimes joining them with metal or glass, and sells straight from the atelier.

Artisème is a design store in a Baroque palace selling works by local artists and designers for the home. At Malá Strana, Prague, the range centers on Czech glass, studio ceramics and artist-made home objects.
Best for Czech glass, studio ceramics and artist-made home objects
Artisème occupies the former Sala Terrena -- literally the garden lounge -- of the Grand Priory Palace (Velkopřevorský palác) in Prague's Malá Strana, a complex with architectural roots reaching back to the twelfth century, standing immediately beside the city's well-known Lennon Wall. Within that historic shell the gallery operates as a showcase for contemporary Bohemian and Czech design: handmade objects, glassware and craft pieces selected by specialist curators who draw from both established names and emerging designers active in the current Czech design market. The juxtaposition is deliberate -- the gallery's own description frames the space as "an oasis of peace and beauty," setting new, hand-produced work against centuries-old stone vaulting rather than a conventional retail interior. Beyond regular sales, Artisème also programs small cultural events, including exhibitions and installations, positioning itself as much as a curatorial platform for Czech design as a shop. It is recognized by Prague City Tourism and by the Homo Faber craftsmanship guide as one of the city's notable venues for contemporary applied design, sitting within the same Malá Strana cluster of craft-focused addresses that has made the district a recognized center for Czech decorative arts.

Deelive is one of Central Europe's largest dedicated Czech design stores, carrying more than 3,000 products made in the Czech Republic — contemporary glass, porcelain and ceramics, furniture and lighting, jewelry, fashion and accessories, and art photography, graphics and books. The store's stated focus is 'the best of the local design scene,' spanning newly launched work alongside recognized icons of Czech design, and it develops its own branded product lines in cooperation with established Czech designers, with an emphasis on workmanship and finishing detail. The Prague flagship sits in Staré Město, positioned deliberately in the historic core near the National Theatre and Charles Bridge, and the space is conceived as more than a shop floor — a meeting point where visitors can learn about individual designers' work and craft directly. Deelive operates a second Prague location and an additional store in Brno, extending the same curated-Czech-design model beyond the capital. For a browser drawn to Bohemian glassmaking and contemporary Central European design objects rather than mass-market souvenirs, it functions as a single, reliable point of entry into the current Czech design scene.

Best for Small-series Czech ceramics and wooden objects for everyday use
In August Company began in the autumn of 2017 as the creative project of Karolína and Teodorik. The two art directors had met that year on a project for a shared client. She brought illustration and hand-lettering with textiles, and he brought photography and web design. Together they moved from drawings and photographs to designing objects for everyday use. The products are predominantly handcrafted in small workshops in the Czech Republic, with a few exceptions the company names openly. T-shirts and sweatshirts are made in a factory in Portugal, and plywood trays are made in Sweden. Ceramics and wood share the range with textile pieces and paper goods, and the aim is objects for ordinary days rather than special occasions. Waste is handled with the same candour. Half of the bags are cut from dead stock canvas, clay from the ceramics process is recycled into new pieces, and packaging is reused cardboard and paper collected from printers. The studio and showroom at Dr. Zikmunda Wintra 791/17 in Prague 6 shows current objects. Visitors also see previews of the collections still to come.

Porcelan Klara sells complete Czech porcelain dinner, tea and coffee services in classic shapes including Bernadotte and the blue-onion Cibulak pattern, plus a children's line, from its Ostrava showroom and online store.
Best for Czech porcelain dinner, tea and coffee services in classic shapes like Bernadotte
Porcelan Klara sells Czech porcelain across both an e-commerce platform and a network of physical stores, with its Ostrava location anchoring the brand at 28. rijna square in the city center. The range centers on complete tableware services - dinner, tea and coffee sets - built around a mix of historic and contemporary shapes. Two patterns carry particular weight in Czech porcelain tradition: Bernadotte, a mid-century form associated with Czechoslovak porcelain design, and Cibulak, the blue-onion pattern that has been a staple of Central European tableware for generations, recognizable by its cobalt floral motif on white porcelain. Alongside those, the shop also carries newer shapes like Alaska, Alexa and Luna, plus individual pieces - cups, bowls, vases, plates - and a dedicated children's porcelain line, extending the catalog beyond formal dinnerware into gifting territory. The Ostrava showroom keeps regular retail hours, Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 6pm and Saturday mornings, and takes card payment in person, but the business is explicit that the physical showroom isn't set up to handle online-order pickups, returns or complaints - those go through separate channels - and that in-store stock and pricing can differ from the web catalog. For anyone collecting a specific Czech pattern, that means checking availability at the physical counter directly rather than assuming the site matches the shelf.
Headquartered in Nova Role near Karlovy Vary and tracing 230 years of tradition with 100 years of production in Nova Role since 1921, Thun 1794 fires hard porcelain at 1,405 degrees Celsius across three plants in Nova Role, Klasterec and Lesov. It decorates tableware, hotel porcelain and children's collections using transfers, spraying, hand-painting and stamping, and was named to the Diamanty ceskeho byznysu 2024 hall of fame for corporate social responsibility.
