Functional Ceramics by Derek Wilson
I’m a sucker for those intricate details, when I see imagery up-close of ceramics for example I get incredibly inspired by the handmade features. It’s particularly appealing for me when what looks quite simple and refined from afar, has real clarity and purity when seen up-close or held. Derek W
Glazes and Forms at Hibinokurashi
As Charles Eames said, “The details are not the details. They make the design.” This is very true, especially in this case where I’m highlighting a selection of pottery from a Japanese store that I came across online titled Hibinokurashi (or Daily Life). I’ve been searching high and low for
Handcrafted Ceramic Work by Lubna Chowdhary
Sometimes I get all the credit when finding content for the blog, most of the time they’re all my own findings, but on certain occasions I get help from collaborators and those that email in submissions. Not just from creatives and designers that want me to showcase their own work, sometimes even
Pottery by Yuichiro and Tomoko Suzuki
With our newest feature that released over the weekend with potter Adam Silverman, it seemed a bit rude to post any other pottery as we could be seen to specialise in one specific area. As you know, that’s not the case. But when I homed in on the good work of Japanese duo Yuichiro and Tomo Suzuki,
Feature with American Potter and Sculptor Adam Silverman
Today I’m proud to present to you all our newest feature, an interview with Los Angeles potter and sculptor Adam Silverman. As the years roll on and the site develops I always appreciate the creatives that I get to interview and the conversations I have with them. Just like you, I’m a fan myself
New Arrivals from Yumiko iihoshi
I have received some interesting emails as of late from readers recommending that I change our posting pattern a little to incorporate new arrivals from the shop. Interestingly this is something that I’ve been thinking about myself since there’s a definite disconnect from the shop and the blog,
Ceramics by Chikako Kojima

Ceramics by Japanese Maker Toru Hatta
Two things that I have no problem finding in terms of inspiration are furniture and pottery. For some reason they’re at the forefront, whether that be a particular phase at the moment I’m not sure (quite possibly), but I’m always keeping my eyes on the ground for other content and avenues to p
Works by Ceramic Artist and Sculptor Andrei Davidoff
Today I'll be making my weekly visit to the local pottery studio. I've been meddling with the idea of producing a teapot on the wheel for a while, so I've been watching various tutorials to get an idea of how to make such an object. Like researching any craftsmen, these guys have been doing it for y
Ceramics by Justine Allison
Often you find out a lot about a creative by their 'about' or 'bio' page, I like to hear what they have to say and what their inspirations are, whether it be as a maker or a designer. Through all these years finding and sourcing inspiration for the site I have come across many common traits that con
