A made-to-order porcelain set in emerald green, sage and soft pink, created as a delicate gift for loved ones and the occasions that matter most.

Each piece is shaped and glazed by hand, turning a personal colour palette into something to use, share and keep for years.

About a year ago, we started working on a project we’d wanted to exist for much longer - we just didn’t know yet what form it would take.

materiamensa is an audiovisual series about the relationship between food, vessel, and the way we experience taste. It’s not a documentary, and it’s not culinary content in the familiar sense. Closer to a visual essay - where a dish and a ceramic object meet as equal participants, and together ask a question we rarely stop to consider.

Does taste begin in the mouth? Or much earlier - in the texture, in expectation, in the surface of a vessel, in the light falling across a glaze?

For us, this is a question we live with every day. Materia Mensa is how we explore it out loud.

Over the next few days, we’ll share more - why we started it, what it explores, and where it’s going.

* BTS scenes from the episode with Joanna Brayanova and the special dinner around the idea. Stay tuned for more.

A first glimpse from our materiamensa dinner with Joanna Brayanova at hola .

This evening is part of a project we have been developing around the way a table can shape the experience of taste - through the food, the vessels, the setting, and the people gathered around it.

We can’t wait to share more of what has been taking shape.

More soon.

Благодарим от сърце! 🤍
Да видим толкова много приятели в ателието през последната седмица — безценно. Всеки да си тръгне с толкова широка усмивка, а някои да се върнат по няколко пъти. Не сме си представяли, че нашата идея за разпродажба на архива на Pottery & Poetry ще донесе такава енергия — и на нас, и на всеки, който влезе. ✨
Най-прекрасното е, че отдавна забравени уникални и единични бройки намериха нов дом. 🏺
Останаха още малко — и тях няма да си ги пазим. Ще ви поканим отново в края на септември. Дотогава от пещите ще излязат още много експерименти, цветове, текстури и глазури, които дори за нас ще са изненада. 🔥🌈
Чудно и цветно лято, прегръдки от целия екип. Осмислихте усилията и работата ни. 🌸

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. 🤍
Seeing so many friends come through the studio this past week has been priceless. Watching everyone leave with the biggest smiles — and some of you coming back more than once — meant everything to us. We never imagined our archive sale would bring this kind of energy, to you and to us. ✨
The most wonderful part? Pieces that had been forgotten for years finally found their home. 🏺
A few are still left — and we’re not keeping them. We’ll invite you back at the end of September. Until then, the kilns will keep going, and even we don’t know yet what colors, textures, and glazes are coming. 🔥🌈
Have a beautiful, colorful summer. A big hug from the whole team. You reminded us why we do this. 🌸

We did it. 🇧🇬

Pottery&Poetry has officially submitted its application to 50bestproductsfrombulgaria — the first independent national selection of Bulgarian products built to compete on the world stage.

For us, it’s a chance to share the story behind every piece — the hands, the craft, the poetry — with the world.

And we’d love not to go alone. If you’re a Bulgarian brand making something with care, this one’s for you. It’s free, and open until 30 September.

Meet Mina, our senior ceramicist. Mina is an absolute perfectionist. And this bowl knows it.

Shape, glaze, texture… she wants every single edge to be flawless. But when things are made by hand with natural materials, the kiln has its own plans. Much to Mina’s horror and to the delight of everyone who doesn’t share her eye for the tiniest “flaw.” 🔥😅

Over the past five days, we’ve sold so many imperfect plates, cups, bowls, platters, and even full sculptures that we’re now certain - every piece is perfect in its own way. It just needs the right person to see it. 🤍✨

Come find yours today and tomorrow, 9 to 17. 📍

Sunday studio preview. ✨

Here’s what we’ve prepared for tomorrow’s sale, because Monday deserves to start with something shiny.

Calling all magpies, crows and lovers of beautiful objects. 🖤
This small selection is all about prototypes, special pieces, drawings, lustre, playful details and one-of-a-kind decorations.
Some pieces come in sets, others are single treasures. Each one is unique, made in our studio as an experiment, a sample, or a special piece that never became part of a regular collection.

Perfect for people with a more refined taste, softer interiors, beautiful shelves, festive tables, or simply for anyone who believes that a plate can be much more than a plate.
We are open 10:00-18:00

Message us if something catches your eye. ✨

Неделен preview от ателието. ✨

Ето какви неща сме подготвили за разпродажбата утре, защото понеделник може да започне и с нещо лъскаво.

Всички врани, гарги и ценители на красиви обекти са добре дошли. 🖤

Тази малка селекция е посветена на прототипи, специални изделия, рисунки, лустро, игриви детайли и уникални декорации.

Някои неща са в сетове, други са поединични. Всяко е различно и е създадено в ателието ни като експеримент, семпъл или специална бройка, която не е станала част от колекция.

Чудесен акцент за хора с по-фин вкус, за по-нежни интериори, декорация на рафта, празнични маси или просто за всички, които вярват, че една чиния може да бъде много повече от съд.

Ще работим с клиенти от 10:00 до 18:00

Пишете ни, ако нещо ви хване окото. ✨

Отворихме. Тук сме само до 15:00 часа, побързайте, първият печели 😜

Cancer season is coming.
🦀
The most caring and creative sign in the zodiac Our founder and mastermind is one of them. ✨

These one-of-a-kind sets are looking for a new home, and they might just be the perfect gift for someone with a birthday coming up. Especially if they’re a foodie. 🎁🍽

The pieces were made as samples for a custom order for a boutique in Lebanon Le Huitieme , which means whoever gets them will be the only person here with ceramics like these. 🌿

What are you waiting for? Drop us a message if you’re planning to stop by on Sunday. We’ll be in the studio briefly, loading yet another kiln. 🔥
