Every piece tells a story. ❤️ ## Photos and videos - ![A clay sculpture of a dancing woman, captured before firing.

Because I shape each one individually, no two pieces are ever exactly the same. You will see little quirks from the kiln and subtle marks from my fingers. That is what makes it soul-full pottery, not factory-made stuff. For me, pottery is all about the feel. Whether I am throwing on the wheel or using coil techniques to build a feminine sculpture, I want the piece to feel like it came from human hands, not a factory line. That is why I embrace the little imperfections that happen during the firing process. I love working on custom orders. If you have been searching for a specific type of handmade ceramic vase, a decorative planter, or a sculpture that matches your home decor, let us talk. You can choose the glazes, the textures, and even the motifs. I have done everything from Koi fish patterns to carved pet faces. We use high-fire stoneware clay, so your pieces are not just for looking at; they are durable enough for daily life. Each piece typically takes about 2 to 3 weeks to finish. This covers the drying, glazing, and the double firing in the kiln at 1200 degrees. It is a slow process, but I find it really therapeutic and hope you feel that calm energy when you hold the final piece in your hands. ## About Mud Effects Pottery Studio I am Ritu, and I believe pottery should hold a bit of magic. My rooftop studio in Whitefield is where I spend my days turning simple lumps of clay into pieces that bring warmth and soul to your home. 🫶🏻 [See all of Mud Effects Pottery Studio's services](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio) ## More from Custom & Bespoke Pottery by Mud Effects Pottery Studio - [Featured](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/featured) - [Hand-Sculpted Ganesha Idols](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/hand-sculpted-ganesha-idols) - [Custom Mugs, Tumblers & Jars](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/custom-mugs-tumblers-jars) - [Bespoke Tableware & Cafe Orders](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/bespoke-tableware-cafe-orders) - [Festive Decor: Lights & Incense Holders](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/festive-decor-lights-incense-holders) - [Personalized Pet Pottery](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/personalized-pet-pottery) - [Behind the Scenes: My Creative Process](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/behind-the-scenes-my-creative-process) - [Join a Workshop](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/custom-bespoke-pottery/join-a-workshop) ## More services by Mud Effects Pottery Studio - [Pottery Classes & Workshops](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/pottery-classes-workshops) - [Kiln Firing Services](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/kiln-firing-services) - [Corporate & Private Group Events](https://mytribe.in/mud-effects-pottery-studio/corporate-private-group-events) ## Similar work from other experts - [Custom Ceramic Home Decor](https://mytribe.in/thepottersplacebangalore/bespoke-ceramic-commissions/bespoke-home-decor) by The Potter's Place · Bespoke Ceramic Commissions · Visit Studio in HSR Layout; Ships across India - [Unique Ceramic Home Decor and Hand-Sculpted Art](https://mytribe.in/mayaspottery/custom-pottery/unique-home-decor) by Maya's Pottery · Custom Pottery · Studio in Jeevan Bima Nagar; Delivers across Bengaluru - [Handmade Ceramic Home Decor and Vases](https://mytribe.in/maati_sona/handmade-ceramic-wares/home-decor-vases-planters-more) by Maati Sona · Handmade Ceramic Wares · Ships across India; Visit studio in HSR Layout - [Featured Ceramic Art and Pottery Creations](https://mytribe.in/the-janbo/artisanal-ceramic-wares/featured) by The Janbo · Artisanal Ceramic Wares · Pickup at Kodathi Gate studio; Delivers across Bengaluru - [Handmade Clay Planters & Sculptural Vases](https://mytribe.in/trayah-pottery/handmade-ceramics-pottery-supplies/for-your-plant-babies) by Trayah Pottery · Handmade Ceramics & Pottery Supplies · Store in Jayanagar; Delivers across Bengaluru - [Unique Home Decor in Handcrafted Ceramic Art](https://mytribe.in/oriri.studio/sale-of-readymade-ceramic-products/unique-home-decor) by Oriri Studio · Sale of Readymade Ceramic Products · Studio in Nagashetty Halli; Ships across India ## Book To book Mud Effects Pottery Studio, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%20Ritu%2C%20I%20saw%20your%20artistic%20vases%20and%20sculptures%20on%20mytribe.%20I%20would%20love%20to%20discuss%20a%20custom%20piece%20for%20my%20home!)
