From raw clay bodies to finished tableware, this collection captures the foundation of my work. I bring together the materials and knowledge I use in my own practice, making studio-grade pottery accessible to every learner in Mumbai.

This is the foundation of my craft. I source a wide range of raw materials, from various clays like Red Terracotta and China Clay to essential minerals like Silica, Feldspar, and Grog. I believe having access to quality, tested materials is the first step in any potter's journey.

The magic of glaze chemistry, displayed in a library of test tiles. Each square represents countless hours of testing to perfect a color, texture, and finish. I provide these tested glazes and the knowledge to help you understand how they interact with different clay bodies and firing temperatures.

It was a pleasure to host a workshop where we explored different clays and techniques. You can see us discussing custom-made tools, like a perfectly balanced paddle, and demonstrating faceting on the wheel. Sharing this practical knowledge is at the heart of what I do.

A glimpse of what's possible with our stoneware clay and glazes. This cobalt blue cup, part of a limited edition set, shows the beautiful, deep color you can achieve. The form is simple, designed for everyday use, proving that functionality and art can coexist.

I often get asked why I started supplying materials. The answer is simple: when I began, nothing was available, so I had to make it myself. This led me to think, "Why not me?" I wanted to make the path easier for the next generation of potters in India.

About Featured

When you are starting out, finding consistent clay and reliable tools is the hardest part. I do not just supply these materials; I use the exact same terracotta, stoneware, and handcrafted trimming tools in my own daily practice. You are not buying generic stock here—you are getting materials tested for Mumbai’s climate and my specific high-fire firing standards.
