Founded in 2008 by artist Bari Ziperstein, BZIPPY is a ceramic furniture and housewares company producing open edition wares. Inspired by architecture and industrial design, BZIPPY builds on a taxonomy of slab-based and extruded forms to deliver high-quality, rigorously handbuilt, functional ceramic objects. BZIPPY furniture and housewares are included in multiple high-end showrooms, lifestyle stores, and its clients include many prominent interior designers.

The BZIPPY Fund is an annual distribution to arts-driven programs through grants and scholarships, aiming to support initiatives that foster community, education, and access.
