Bray Raku Studio creates unique, hand-made Raku pottery. The work is made by the owners, Nathan and Catherine Bray, in South Orange County California. They complete the throwing, glazing, and firing of their pottery in a small studio located in San Clemente. This studio is also the home of Distinctive Architectural Products, a company owned and operated by Nathan’s brother Eli.

Distinctive Architectural Products specializes in custom millworks for the high-end builder using select wood species. Their products include but are not limited to all types of doors, sash, shutters, trim, and flooring. The exceptional quality of this woodwork makes it suitable for use in harsh environments.

Recently BrayRaku.net has worked with Jon Lim from Lim Pacific to develop a new website and affiliate program to promote their Raku pottery. In addition to selling online Bray Raku Studio works with art galleries, interior designers, art consultants, and corporate gift buyers.
