About Amber Grace Ceramics

Hi, I’m Amber — the hands, heart, and more often than not clay-covered hoodie behind Amber Grace Ceramics.

In my non-potting life I work in psychology, leading and supporting a team who care for children with really complex stories. It’s meaningful work, and also the kind that leaves your brain buzzing long after you get home. Pottery started as my way to switch that off — a tiny rebellion against overthinking. Clay is wonderfully uninterested in your workload, your meeting notes, or the emotional tangles of the day. It just says: be here now, with your hands. And I’ve kept at it ever since, becoming a very dedicated part-time potter with a much happier nervous system.

What Inspires My Making

What draws me to pottery is the physicality of it — the shapes, the curves, the textures, the quiet satisfaction of something that feels just right in your hands. I love the way clay holds warmth, how a thumbprint can change a form, how a small piece of art can bring beauty into a home every single time you see or touch it. That tiny spark of joy is what keeps me making.

My Style & Values

Whether it's a cup that fits perfectly in your palms or a bowl that becomes part of your morning ritual, my hope is that these ceramics bring a quiet joy to your day - a reminder to slow down and notice beauty in everyday things.

My work leans into soft, earthy tones: sage greens, dusky pinks, taupes, gentle creams, and those calm, duck-egg blues I can’t seem to let go of. I’m drawn to pieces that feel lived-in and grounding… objects that carry warmth, stories, and a sense of home. I don’t chase perfection — just honesty. The kind of beauty that feels comforting, intentional, and unmistakably you.

When something truly resonates with me, I feel it instantly — and that pickiness shows up in my making. I only release work that feels authentic to my style and values, pieces I would proudly place in my own home.

Amber Grace Ceramics is my way of making art that matters — small, soulful objects created with care, for people who want their homes to feel like sanctuary.

I’m so glad you’re here.
Thank you for supporting handmade.
