About Custom Pottery
Made with Heart, Just for You
I make pottery that feels personal - a little bit of magic, meant for your hands and your home. Every piece comes from my love of clay and the stories we can shape together. If you’ve got an idea for something special, like a mug that fits your morning chai perfectly or a one-off vase that turns heads, I’d love to bring it to life.
What I Can Make
- Mugs and teapots for your kitchen rituals
- Bowls, cookie jars, or those quirky trinket trays you never find in stores
- Vases, lampshades, and small sculptures with a nature-inspired touch
- Seasonal décor for Diwali, Christmas, or just because
I’m always up for a challenge, so if you want something totally different, bolo yaar (just say it, friend).
How We’ll Do It
- Tell me your idea, however rough or wild it is
- I’ll make your piece using wheel-throwing or hand-building - depends on what suits your vision
- All glazes are food-safe for kitchenware and I add details by hand
- Expect little marks or differences - that’s the soul of handmade, not a factory finish
Your custom pottery won’t look like anyone else’s. That’s the point. If you want something mass-produced, this might not be for you. But if you love the feel of handmade ceramic gifts and unique clay kitchenware, you’ll fit right in.

My Story
Hey, I’m Maya. Clay feels like magic in my hands, and my studio? That’s where I find peace. Started out just me, spinning the wheel for myself, but now it’s a buzzing spot—nature vibes, lots of laughs. Couples, friends, kids, even local women artisans, all getting messy and making something real. Opened up in 2024, and honestly, this community is the best part. I’m grateful, always.
