Ayaki Ceramics
About me
Welcome to my online shop!
I’m Alexander, the founder and the only artist behind Ayaki Ceramics. This is a single-person project, where every piece is crafted entirely by my hands from the first touch of clay to the final firing.
At Ayaki Ceramics, I create functional ceramic pieces for tea practices, with a deep passion for the chawan (茶碗; literally "tea bowl") - a vessel that embodies the soul of the Japanese tea ceremony, connecting tradition with the beauty of now.
In my work, I strive to embody wabi-sabi, a philosophy that embraces imperfection, transience, and the beauty of natural flaws. Through wood ash glazes, Oribe-inspired designs, and black, heavily grogged clay, I create pieces that highlight the organic nature of ceramics.
Each chawan carries its own unique variations, making it as individual person who uses it.
Thank you for being here. I hope you find something that feels like it was made just for you!
Totally in love with my little handmade vase! The details are gorgeous, and you can feel the texture. Aleksander is an amazing super talented potter

Working with Aleksander was a pleasure! I ordered a custom matcha tea bowl but was unsure about the shape or glaze. He sketched ideas, kept me involved at every stage, and provided updates throughout the process. After four weeks, I received a bowl. Highly recommend!
