A folded ribbon of clay, finished in oil-slick bronze. The glaze pools where gravity asks it to.

A growing portrait of Viktoir objects in private interiors across Belgium and the Netherlands — photographed in residence shot by Bert Demasure, Joachim De Rous, Lenzer and Hablar Studio, in homes designed by Laura Calleeuw, LUUM, Monrow, Studio '05 and others.
Viktoir partners with editors, galleries, architects and students to develop pieces beyond the studio's own catalogue — from limited editions to bespoke staging for international showrooms.
Sometimes Viktoir leaves the kiln and travels to show new editions, prototypes and one-off pieces alongside other inspiring makers or brands we've been reading & watching for years.

Viktoir Ceramic Design, founded by Vicky Courtens in 2017, focuses on designing unusual original ceramic objects for various interiors. Tailored to the customer, Viktoir is the optimal choice to give an interior an extra touch that cannot be found anywhere else.
Driven by modern computer-aided production technologies, Viktoir brings an old handmade craft back to life — presenting highly durable, timeless designs: tableware, vases, candle holders and other decorative interior objects.
Each mother-form starts as a 3D CAD sketch — geometry refined until the silhouette holds from every angle.
A piece is printed in clay layer by layer, or slipcast from liquid clay into a hand-poured plaster mould.
A first firing turns green clay into biscuit — porous, durable, and ready to receive the glaze.
Glazes mixed and applied by hand — terracotta, anthracite, cream, bronze, gold — chosen to suit the interior.
The kiln decides the rest. Each object exits with a slightly different surface — proof of hand and heat.
"Just like in real life — one Cadzand does not work. Together, they shine more."
