Hi, I’m Kiki, and I create small-batch, handmade ceramics designed to bring colour and personality into your home. Inspired by nature, the world around me, and the beauty of the human form, my work celebrates individuality, body positivity, and the joy of slowing down. Every piece is crafted by hand, making each one unique.
I create small-batch, handmade ceramics designed to bring warmth, colour, and personality into your home. Each piece is made to spark joy, to encourage mindfulness, and to celebrate individuality in a world that often feels fast and mass-produced.
​
I fell in love with ceramics for its mix of slowness, possibility, and imperfection. Working with clay teaches patience and presence, qualities that feel increasingly rare today. My work is inspired by nature, the world around me, and the human form, with a particular focus on body positivity. Every pot, bowl, and cup is crafted by hand using techniques like coil building, slab building, pinching, and casting, ensuring that each piece is unique and full of character.
​
My journey with clay began at a young age, attending regular ceramics classes, and it quickly became a lifelong passion. I went on to earn a BA (Hons) in Decorative Arts from Nottingham Trent University, specialising in ceramics, which allowed me to refine my skills and explore creative expression in depth. I also drew inspiration from life drawing classes, discovering a fascination with the female form, the curves, asymmetry, and “imperfections.” This influence continues to inform my work, celebrating the uniqueness of every body and encouraging self-love.
​
Colour and form are central to everything I make. Blue, for example, recurs in my pieces as a symbol of depth, freedom, confidence, and happiness. My ceramics are meant to uplift and inspire, reminding you to slow down, notice beauty, and celebrate yourself and the world around you.
​
Through Kiki & Clay, my goal is to share the joy and mindfulness of clay with you. I hope my ceramics bring warmth, personality, and a little bit of wonder into your home, turning everyday moments into something special.
