Why INOUMI wanted pottery

INOUMI chooses handmade pottery over mass produced pieces to bring every sense into the experience. Each hand thrown bowl carries subtle textures, warmth and individuality, reflecting the same care, integrity and simplicity we value in our powders. Crafted to last and beautifully imperfect, these ceramics elevate flavour into a moment of quiet presence thoughtful, considered and entirely intentional.

Made for moments, not mantelpieces.

We believe beautiful things should be used daily not hidden behind glass. A handmade mug that survives the oven and dishwasher is more sustainable than fragile, mass produced cups. Durability is its own kind of mindfulness.

Each piece is stamped with the INOUMI mark before its final firing, then inspected and packed in recyclable packaging no plastic bubbles, ever.

INOUMI X INCA Collaboration

To stay true to our British roots and values of honesty, craft and sustainability, we partnered with INCA Pottery, a small studio in Sevenoaks, Kent. Potter Anna da Silva, formerly an intensive-care nurse creates functional stoneware that is thrown or slab-built, trimmed, bisque-fired to 1,000 °C, glazed with food-safe glazes, and vitrified at 1,240 °C for durability. Every item shows subtle variations in colour and size, making it genuinely one-of-a-kind.

These pieces are not mass produced, so availability is always limited and offered in small quantities. We are proud to share that a selection is also available at Selfridges.
