Nerikomi Checkered Design

Our ceramic pieces are lovingly handcrafted at the Mystery Creek Ceramics studio, where we blend traditional craftsmanship with innovative techniques.

Using the Nerikomi technique, a process rooted in Eastern tradition that involves layering and folding colored clay, we create distinctive surface patterns that make each piece truly one-of-a-kind. No two items are identical, even when formed from the same block of clay, giving every piece its own unique character.

Once a year, we bring to life our exclusive Checkered Collection—a striking and meticulously crafted design that’s highly anticipated by our community. This limited edition pattern is achieved through extruding each square of colored clay and layering them in a classic checkered style, showcasing the skill and artistry of our team. Each piece is a true collector's item, embodying both elegance and playful charm. Available only for a limited time, these unique pieces are perfect for those looking to add something truly rare to their collection.

If you are unable to select an option, it means that color is currently out of stock.

Available in Black, Dark Green, and Natural with a glossy finish, while all other colors feature a matte finish.

Please note: Due to the unique Nerikomi process, each piece may vary slightly from the images shown. Subtle warping of the porcelain and variations in design are natural outcomes of the hand-building process, making each item truly one-of-a-kind
