Studio Pottery Pocket
A Studio Pottery Pocket is a compact, curated collection of small handmade ceramic pieces designed to showcase the character and craft of a potter in a format that’s easy to carry, display, or gift. Think of it as a miniature portfolio: a handful of thoughtfully chosen items that reveal technique, glaze preferences, and the maker’s aesthetic.
Typical contents
Tiny cups or tasting vessels (chawan or yunomi-sized)
Small vases or bud jars
Miniature bowls for salt, sauces, or jewelry
Test tiles or glaze shards
A stamped or signed token (clay badge or tag) with the potter’s mark
A short provenance card with the maker’s name, clay and glaze notes, and firing method
Purposes
Portfolio sample: For potters who want to present their work to galleries, shops, or customers in a compact way.
Gift set: A thoughtful present for collectors, newlyweds, or anyone who appreciates handcrafted wares.
Learning kit: For students or apprentices to study glaze behavior and forms across small pieces.
Travel companion: Small, light objects that allow makers to sell or demo at shows and markets without transporting large works
