About Custom Ceramics for Businesses & Events
Why I Make Ceramics for Businesses
At Clay Explore, I create ceramics that go way beyond just being functional - each piece is meant to carry your brand’s vibe and add a little handmade warmth to your space. I work out of my Prabhadevi studio, making everything myself, whether it’s for a busy cafe or a thoughtful corporate gift.
Tableware That Feels Like You
I love working with restaurants, chefs, and cafes to build restaurant tableware customization that matches your food and style. The idea is simple: guests notice when the plates, bowls, and mugs aren’t generic. I’ll work with your brand’s look, your menu, and what you actually need day-to-day.
- Plates, platters, bowls, mugs, tumblers (stackable too)
- Serveware like jugs, pitchers, caddies
- I’ve done sets for spots like Baoji, Asian Cafe in Mumbai
Each item is wheel-thrown or hand-built, so no two are the same. You can pick from hand-painted motifs (flowers, fish, whatever you like!), minimalist glazes, or go for something bold like Sgraffito. All pieces are food-safe, and most can handle microwaves and dishwashers.
Gifts That Mean Something
Skip the standard stuff - I make branded ceramic gifts for events and corporate gifting that people actually want to keep. Festival hampers (Diwali, etc.), mugs, tumblers, vases, soap dishes, or even tiles. Each one is handcrafted, so it really feels personal.
Maati Putr: Earth-made, Heartfelt
I call my work ‘Maati Putr’ (Child of the Earth). Everything’s made with intention, from clay, shaped by hand. I’m all about bringing that earthy joy into your business - whether it’s on a dining table or as a unique corporate gifting idea.

My Story
Hey there, I’m Yashashri, and this is Clay Explore - my tiny studio tucked in Prabhadevi, Mumbai. Everything here starts with my two hands and a big dose of inspiration from nature - fish swimming, lotus blooming, birds fluttering. I’m all about making simple moments feel special, whether it’s a handmade plate or teaching someone to play with clay. Exhibitions are cool, but honestly, the real fun is in the studio, making and sharing the clay joy.
