About Handmade Ceramics for Sale
What Drives My Ceramics
I make things slow, with my hands, not a wheel. Every piece is a bit of my mood, a bit of Mumbai mitti (soil), and a lot of patience. Sometimes the clay fights back, sometimes the glaze does its own thing. That's the charm - nothing is perfect, but everything is honest.
Imperfectly Beautiful
Mass-produced stuff? Not my jam. My pottery is all handbuilt, so you’ll spot finger marks, wonky edges, and glaze that’s got a mind of its own. If you want something that’s truly one-of-a-kind clay art, you’ll find it here. Each item has its own story, and sometimes, a little bit of Mumbai chaos.
Signature Pieces
- Spiky Bowls: A little punk, a little fun. Good for keys, rings, or just staring at.
- Custom storytelling wall plates: We can work together to turn your memory or passion into a set of plates. It’s a collab, not just a commission.
- Kaleidoscope Collection: Bright colors, speckled glazes, and functional stuff like jars and trays.
Everyday Art
I make mugs and cups with weird handles, sometimes a duck at the bottom. Bowls and plates range from three-legged centerpieces to tiny trinket dishes. Vases and jars are bold, sometimes odd-shaped, always hand-painted.
How I Make It
I use pinching, coiling, slab rolling - old school stuff. Sometimes I scratch through the glaze (sgraffito) for texture. The kiln always surprises me, so no two pieces are ever twins.
Where to Find Me
Mostly at pop-ups and art festivals in Mumbai. If you want to see, touch, or just chat about artisan ceramic home decor, drop by. My stall’s usually messy, but the vibe’s good.

My Story
Hey, I’m Garima. Clay’s my way to slow the world down, hands deep in mud, making sense of things. Sometimes feels odd, making art when life’s wild, but it’s how I steady myself. Nature’s everywhere in my work—like that leaf I dragged home, now a platter with veins and stories. I chase old crafts, weaving, linocut, wrapping pebbles, all for the quiet magic. Imperfections? I love them. That’s where the story sits.
My Work
Pottery & Craft Workshops - I run handbuilding pottery, storytelling with clay, sgraffito plate making, frame loom weaving, linocut printmaking, and clay date sessions.
Beginner Friendly, All Ages - No skill needed. Anyone can join—kids, friends, families, or teams. Just come ready to get your hands messy.
Relaxed, Cozy Vibe - Think screens off, muddy hands, full hearts. It’s slow, meditative, and all about enjoying the process.
Learn Real Techniques - I teach pinching, coiling, slab rolling, carving, sgraffito, plus glazing and firing. You’ll make something useful, not just pretty.
Creative Escape & Memories - My workshops are for celebrating, unwinding, or just making memories. A hands-on, joy-filled break from the rush.
