Icelandic Ceramics pottery Glit Reykjavik Pottery is the only ceramic factory in Iceland and was founded by Ragnar Kjartansson, sculptor and ceramic artist (1923 - 1989) on June 10, 1958 together with Einar Eliasson, Petur Saemundsen. Ragnar was a member of the Icelandic Sculptors Society which he established in the Icelandic capital in 1972 along with others.

Glit was adamantly devoted to utilising Icelandic clay and ground minerals in production during its first decade of operation-especially hardened lava. In many ways the studio, well ahead of its time-making deep impressions in the history of Icelandic ceramic art.
