Softedge: Durable Tableware for Daily Use, Made in Japan

September 23, 2025

There’s something deeply satisfying about these ceramics, spotted recently.

Theirs is a story in two acts. Act I: Started in 2019 by Layla Cluer near Byron Bay, Australia, Softedge Studio began by designing and producing tableware with a “sculptural twist” and a focus on color, form, and function.

Fast forward to 2023, “material shortages and manufacturing bottlenecks,” and Act II: Facing roadblocks, Softedge switched gears, pausing its in-house production “in search of a more sustainable model.” The happy pivot? “The journey eventually landed Softedge forms in the heartland of Japanese porcelain, Kyushu.”

Now Layla’s signature offerings are made in partnership with “the many hands” of the storied ceramics town of Hasami—all designed with “durability and daily use” in mind.

Have a look at a few favorite pieces:
