********************************
Welcome to Koide Studio!
Thanks for visiting my store.
Shipping:
Free shipping within USA.
Insurance can be arranged with cost upon request.
********************************
Creation is my passion.
So, I never speak badly to my pieces! Instead, I add lots of love.
If a cup flies out of a wheel, no big deal. I still don't swear.
I respect clay's will. I call it a gift from surprise.
It adds great personality not only to its surface, but also to your hands. I just add my spice (modification) to its self-adjustment. That's how it works.
If the cup fits in your hand and to your fingers, one of my goals is accomplished.
If you don't get bored touching, looking and using my piece(s), another goal is accomplished.
If you come back to my shop, that's my ultimate goal!
I would be so grateful!
They are microwave, dishwasher, and food safe unless otherwise noted.
As they are all handmade, none of them are the same, even in the same series.
I hope you find joy using my work!

5 out of 5 starsI've been wanting a mug from Koide Studio for years and I finally picked one up and it's absolutely beautiful! I received one of the gorgeous oatmeal colored mugs and to begin with the packaging. I'm always nervous about having fragile items sent in the mail, especially across the country but the mug was packaged so well and securely. The actual mug is lovely, it's very lightweight but fits comfortably in my hands and feels so warm and comforting when I'm having a cup of tea in the morning and evening. The only small downside is that compared to my other mugs, if I put super hot water in the mug it can be a little too hot to the touch so sometimes I have to wait for it to cool a bit before I pick it up but that's not a deal-breaker and doesn't take away from how nice this mug is.

Clay goods in your everyday life
Everyday, we eat and drink. I really wanted to make my food life even more special. I personally believe that eating and drinking out of handmade bowls and cups would make this everyday "must-do" activity even more special, fun and intimate. That is why I started clay work.
While you talk to your friends over dinner or tea, if your fingers keep touching the uneven rim or keep coming back to a dent of a cup I made, one of my goals is accomplished!
One day in 2009, I worked too hard by throwing for 6 or 7 hours straight (don't do that, fellow potters!) and I damaged my shoulder. Then, I really had to rest my shoulder for months, and decided to spend time on promoting myself and found Etsy. That's how I started my shop on Etsy. I've been enjoying so much meeting and communicating with customers all over the world. It is my honor that my work is used in their everyday life in many continents!
