Welcome to Land and Moon Ceramics!

Hi, I am Shelley. I create simple, functional forms influenced by my time in japan and my love of the outdoors. My ceramics have a raw perfection, simple lines and a truly organic form. My aim is to simply enhance your experience of eating and drinking with beautiful, hardworking tableware that is made to be used everyday. Each Land & Moon piece is entirely unique having been hand thrown, turned and glazed.

In our age, where things move quickly and we increasingly live in a virtual world, everyday items are often mass produced and disposable. This is my little retaliation against this life of haste and waste. I think the world of technology has moved me to seek something more ”human”. I endeavour to move towards a simpler and slower way of living where we focus on quality of life instead of quantity of possessions. There is a lot of comfort in using a cup that you love, that feels good in your hand. Your cup of tea tastes better. You take the time to appreciate it more. I feel excited to be part of this movement towards “slow”.

There is a mystical, meditative quality to working with clay. Everything completely slows down. The breath becomes a little deeper and we start to let go of our mental and physical tension. The therapeutic magic of clay begins.

If you would like to learn with me, below are the sessions I am currently offering. Please feel free to contact me if you would like any additional information.
