Inspired by archaeological finds & traditional shapes, I aim to bring ancient designs back into our modern world. My work is based on Viking, medieval, iron-age, bronze-age, and Neolithic archaeology found mostly in Scandinavia and the UK. Everything is made by me from a lump of clay to the finished item, with help only from my cat. Some items are ready to ship, others are made-to-order.
Like my work? I'd love to hear from you:

5 out of 5 starsThese are the most amazing mugs you will find. I say ‘these’ because this is my second order. My niece loves it and since she is very arthritic in her hands the still of handle helps her to enjoy a cup of coffee without hurting. This is not something I considered when ordering although it makes complete sense. She sent me two pictures of it, knowing she’d already sent one just to drive home how much she loves it. The seller is a master artist in this area. I didn’t think, since it was coming from Australia, that she would get it by her birthday, especially noting the estimated delivery time, customs, etc. It arrived before her birthday!! I was so excited. This is a mug she’ll cherish forever. Thank you for sharing your craft.

5 out of 5 starsI absolutely love this mug and purchasing it from this creator was a delight. On top of the stunning piece, I was really impressed by the care in packing and shipping so it arrived in one piece.

5 out of 5 starsWhen I was on my honeymoon many years ago, we stopped at a place that served hot chocolate in cups like these. We bought two and they have been my husband's favorite cups ever since. But time has meant they'd ended up cracked and well-used. I wanted to get him a replacement for it, but could not find any anywhere until I found this creator here. These mugs were perfect. If anything, they're much nicer than the originals. I'm so happy. The colors are so beautiful and the quality of workmanship shows the talent of the artist.

5 out of 5 starsWords can not express enough with the amazing work put into this mug! Naomi was incredible to work with, and her artistry is top-notch. She custom made the mug I wanted for my husband with the Viking inscription, "Better to fight and fall than to live without hope," and had her include the bind rune for "good health". My husband is battling cancer, and he is so proud of his Viking family history. This was perfect, and he even wept a little. Knowing the clay materials, how she uses rain water, etc., even made it more meaningful to him. The packaging, oh my l, was nervous because the outer box was dented in pretty bad. It traveled from Australia to Hooper, Utah, so I was a little expectant of something. But the CARE inside was amazing! It was wrapped beautifully, and the mug is perfect!! Thank you for the perfect impression

Frequently asked questions
The wonderful peculiarities of the handmade...
Everything in my shop is handmade by me, either on the pottery wheel or by sculpting clay by hand. This means that those little glaze drips, or shape differences, or unusual patterns are just part of the handmade process. Each is guaranteed to be completely unique.
Consider the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi: beauty in imperfection, asymmetry, irregularity, nature, and simplicity. These characteristics embody handmade items. Embrace them!
If your order makes a return trip to me...
Please check the delivery address carefully! If an order is returned to me after long journey across the ocean and back, I will contact the customer immediately. Unfortunately, the buyer will then be responsible for the shipping cost to a different address.
Returns are quite rare, but I encourage my customers to check their address and track the parcel, if possible, so they know if a delivery attempt has been made.
Why is the processing time so long?
I only begin to make an item once I have an order - even those items not requiring personalisation. So, the time to finish your order will depend on how many other orders I have to finish before I get to yours. My lead time is usually 3 to 5 weeks - but I'm trying my hardest to make everything more efficient and get orders done more quickly! Thanks for understanding!
