Emily Reinhardt is the designer and ceramicist behind The Object Enthusiast. Based in Omaha, Nebraska, Emily strives to channel her love of ceramics to create good and thoughtful work. The Object Enthusiast is a collection of modern heirlooms and treasures, with an air of pricelessness and functionality.

Processed with VSCOcam with c1 preset Each little ring dish and small plate carries so much thought and love by its maker. From warm terracotta tones, to dotted and dashed golds on deep forest greens, Emily’s love of color and pattern shows in the variety she produces. Processed with VSCOcam with c1 preset Emily finds that sharing stories is the best way to share her life and passions. It’s through ceramics that these stories often find tangible form and come to life for her. These adorable “sunrise scoops” convey early mornings, and scooping perfect rounds of coffee beans, flax seeds, or sugar. Processed with VSCOcam with c1 preset Emily’s appreciation for fresh flowers, plants, and those who treasure them as much as she does is evident in the vessels she creates. Each pot and vase is charmingly unique and perfectly expresses the right sentiments for what it carries. Processed with VSCOcam with c1 preset We can’t wait to see (and buy) all of The Object Enthusiast’s ceramic wares at our Chicago Summer Market September 6+7! For those of you who can’t wait till then, check out The Object Enthusiast’s website and make sure you follow her on Instagram. Her feed is stunning!
