At Nipots, we are drawn to pottery that retains something of the earth it came from. Our rustic clay planters bring together form, texture and colour, with room for the subtle differences that give each piece its own character.
The character of clay
Terracotta is one familiar expression of clay. The colour, texture and finish of a clay pot depend on the clay, glaze and firing process. These differences shape both its appearance and how it behaves in use.
We work thoughtfully with clay, glazes and the heat of the kiln, exploring the possibilities of form, texture and colour through each new design and experiment.
Made to be used
We care deeply about the quality of every piece, while leaving room for the subtle variations that emerge naturally. We do not seek to smooth away every texture or make every shade of glaze exactly the same.
When choosing a planter, consider the size, drainage and finish alongside its appearance. A pot works best as part of a planting setup suited to your plant, with appropriate potting mix and watering.
More than a pot — a way of living
“Let clay be clay.” is at the heart of Nipots.
Even after clay has been fired into pottery, we want it to retain its own character. This is how Nipots thinks about the things we make, and how we choose to approach life.
An object with warmth and character should not exist only to be displayed. It should be touched, used and made part of everyday life.
Let every piece of our pottery keep its own character, and let us simply be ourselves.
