The small studios behind every piece on the shelves
A note from the owner
Most of what fills a closet or a kitchen was made by nobody in particular. This shop exists for the opposite: things made by someone you could name, in quantities small enough that they still check every piece before it leaves the studio.
That means some things sell out and don’t come back. Glazes vary from mug to mug, and two pairs of hoops are never quite the same. It also means that when you buy a shirt or a candle here, you’re helping keep a small studio working.

01 A one-person pottery studio
Ceramics
[MAKER NAME]
Every vase and mug starts as a lump of clay on the wheel and is trimmed, glazed and fired in small kiln loads. Glazes pool and break differently on each piece, so the color you see is the color of that one pot.

02 A bench jeweler working in gold and brass
Jewelry
[MAKER NAME]
Hoops are hammered, pendants are cut and chains are finished by hand at a single bench. The small marks the tools leave behind are the point, not a flaw to polish away.

03 A small clothing studio
Linen and knitwear
[MAKER NAME]
Simple shapes cut from washed linen and dense knit, made in short runs. When a color sells out it may not come back, which is part of the charm of buying from a studio this small.

04 A small-batch candle and soap maker
Candles and soap
[MAKER NAME]
Candles poured into sculptural moulds and soaps cut by hand from long loaves, then left to cure slowly. Every scent is chosen to smell like a garden, not a department store.
