In the heart of Pondicherry, where the scent of the sea mingles with the raw essence of clay, Clay & Glaze was born—out of passion, out of purpose. What started as a love for the craft has evolved into a mission to revive the art of handmade ceramics.
Every piece we create carries the imprint of skilled hands and mindful artistry. Inspired by nature’s imperfect beauty and the timeless wabi-sabi philosophy, our ceramics embody warmth, authenticity, and quiet elegance. From rustic mugs to organically shaped plates, each form is a testament to the harmony of function and aesthetics.
We believe that the objects you surround yourself with should do more than serve a purpose—they should tell a story, evoke emotion, and transform the everyday into something extraordinary. Our creations are crafted with sustainability at heart, using eco-friendly processes and supporting local artisans, ensuring that every piece is not just beautiful but also ethical.
At Clay & Glaze, we invite you to slow down, to embrace the beauty of handmade, and to bring home more than just ceramics—bring home a piece of soulful craftsmanship, made with love in Pondicherry.
