Ceramics with character

No two handmade cups ever turn out quite the same. The glaze moves differently in the kiln, the clay takes on its own tone, and the form carries traces of whoever threw or built it. At Cay Collective, you'll find ceramics from small studios and independent makers, each piece made in a short run or as a one-off. These are ceramics made to be used every day – and to be looked at.

Ceramics for the kitchen and the table

Ceramics belong at the table, from the first coffee of the day to dinner with friends. Find your new favourite among our mugs and cups, or build a personal table setting with bowls, plates and dishes that are made to be mixed and matched. Add glassware and carafes and your table gets a look of its own, rather than one that came off a single store shelf.

Ceramics for your home

A vase on the windowsill or a sculpture on the bookshelf can do more for a room than a new sofa. Explore our vases and pots, candle holders, sculptures and ceramic wall art. You'll find everything from clean shapes in muted earth tones to playful pieces in bold colour.

Buy ceramics directly from the maker

When you buy ceramics from us, your money goes to a real person with their own studio and their own way of working with clay. Handmade ceramics also make a gift that feels considered, whether you're looking for birthday gifts or a housewarming gift. And since many pieces exist only once, it pays to act when something catches your eye.
