Paradisverkstaden is one of Öland’s most well-known destinations for design and craftsmanship. Here, you can experience how ceramics take shape in the workshop, visit the shop, and explore our exhibitions.
Many visitors combine a stop with us with time in the garden or something to eat at Crêperie Paradis.

A stop for the whole family
Paradisverkstaden is located in Färjestaden, just a few minutes after crossing the Öland Bridge. Here, a ceramics workshop, shop, and Crêperie Paradis come together in a creative environment open year-round.
Stop by to discover the ceramics, enjoy a coffee or lunch, and spend some time in the garden. For many families, Paradis is also a place where children can play, paint, and explore while adults relax.

Ceramics and local craftsmanship
In the shop, we present our new collections in inspiring table settings for the many dinners and celebrations of the year. Here, you’ll find Paradisverkstaden’s ceramics alongside carefully selected products for the kitchen and home.
In addition to our own ceramics, we also offer linen tablecloths in various sizes, as well as local products from Öland, such as oils from Kalm Taste in Kastlösa and wool sweaters from Alexander Stutterheim.
Where ceramics are shaped
The workshop and shop on Öland were designed by Olof Paradis and have evolved over the years as production has changed and grown. Former kiln rooms, decorating areas, and throwing spaces have been transformed into ateliers and inspiring retail spaces.
In 2015, the new workshop was inaugurated, where our ceramics are still made today. The workshop and atelier are located directly adjacent to the shop.
Crêperie Paradis
Each day, the scent of freshly baked goods fills Paradis. Much of what we serve is baked from scratch and enjoyed in a cosy, relaxed setting.
On the menu, you’ll find crêpes and galettes, ice cream from Alvarets Glassmejeri, coffee from the local roastery Balck Coffee, and a selection of French ciders.
When the weather allows, you can settle into the large garden or enjoy the morning sun at the Mediterranean-inspired front terrace. The garden is home to fruit trees, sculptures, and many peaceful spots to sit and enjoy a fika.
The workshop
There is always something creative happening in the workshop. Here, ceramics are wheel-thrown, glazes are applied, and new ideas take shape in the atelier.
As you step inside, you’re first met by worktables with colour samples and brushes laid out. A little further in stands one of the kilns, which reaches temperatures of up to 1200°C during firing.
Along the path toward the kiln, carts are lined with ceramics waiting for their first firing - the bisque firing. During certain periods, the workshop is open for visits and guided tours.
