Shallow Waters Ashtray

This piece feels like wading barefoot through a tidepool — the cool stillness, the shifting grains beneath you, the soft weight of water pressing down. The glaze ripples in coastal hues, pooling in the center like seawater held in stone. Its base is textured like wet sand — subtle, tactile, grounding. Designed as an ashtray, it’s a refined nod to ritual, offering a beautiful place to rest what’s burning.

It elevates the everyday — even the act of smoking — with intention and artistry. A piece meant for moments of pause. For leaning back, breathing deep, and remembering the rhythm of the ocean. Let it bring stillness to your space, and remind you that beauty belongs in every corner of life.

What is Stoneware?

Stoneware pottery is fired at high temperatures to make it strong, hard, and resistant to liquids (non-porous). It is made from clay, but it is more durable than other kinds of pottery and earthenware. The reason it is called "stoneware" is because of its stone-like qualities, so you can expect something that is rugged, durable, and exudes natural feeling. 

Care instructions

While stoneware and the glaze I use is 100% food-safe, microwave safe, and dishwasher friendly, to retain the beautiful colors, I do recommend hand washing and not using them in microwaves. Although stoneware is tough, it could still chip if it is bashed so please handle your pots with care.
