If you’ve got an idea for a custom ceramic art piece - whether it’s for your home, a gift, or something big and bold - I’m here to help make it real. ### What I Make - Functional pieces for daily use, like tableware sets, teapots, or even a full chess set. I once carved plates for a non-profit, and that felt pretty special. - Unique ceramic home decor - tall vases, lamps, wall art, and even terracotta tile installations. Some vases have hundreds of tiny clay flowers, and yes, it takes ages but it’s worth it. - Personalized clay sculptures and installations. I love working with abstract forms and nature-inspired shapes, especially marine life. - Handmade pottery gifts that mean something. One time, I painted a plate with an observatory for a retiring scientist. That’s the kind of project that sticks with me. ### How We Work Together - You bring your idea, big or small. - We chat about design, materials, and techniques. - I get my hands dirty and start shaping your piece. - Sometimes, I team up with other artists for detailed painting or special touches. ### The Craft I use terracotta, stoneware, and more. Wheel throwing, hand-building, carving, painting, glazing - all part of the process. Every piece has its quirks. That’s what makes it yours. ## Highlights Browse through The Potter's Place's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/thepottersplacebangalore/bespoke-ceramic-commissions/featured) - [Video: This video shows the journey of a custom-designed ceramic sink, from a simple lump of clay to a beautiful, functional piece of art in a client's home.
