The Story So Far…

I’m Mutsa and I run the Kindred Workshop.

I’ve always had a fascination with clay but it wasn’t until I lost my job in 2020 that I had more free time to explore my craft. During this time I started making earrings for myself, and in the space of a few weeks my lockdown hobby turned into a small business!

Making handcrafted clay earrings re-awakened my love of all things clay. After taking a weekly wheel throwing course I decided to start making and selling hand thrown and hand built mugs too. I make pottery in small batches from my little home studio, based in the UK.

It brings me so much JOY transforming lumps of clay; crafting them into beautiful, unique and functional pieces for your home. I hope that my creations bring little moments of joy your way too!

I take a lot of inspiration from nature’s seasonal beauty and find myself constantly gravitating towards warm earth tones. I’ve always been drawn to hand formed ceramics with imperfect and organic shapes.

I spend a lot of time adventuring in the woods, road tripping to wild spaces and finding rivers to splash around in. Whilst out on these adventures I love finding wild clay to use in my pottery. It’s pretty magical getting to create pieces that feel grounded and connected to the earth.

All Kindred Workshop products come in low-waste, 100% recyclable packaging, making them more friendly to the earth.
