Handmade Canadian Ceramics : a One Woman Business
I think, design and then create adorable critters with my own two hands. Each piece of adorable porcelain jewelry ceramic figurine and tableware piece is a one of a kind, unique creation. I take care of each and every step in the process. From the initial thought to the handmade ceramics, packing and bringing your order to the post office, everything is done by one person : me ! I take pride in making everything myself, although it means that things sell out quicker than I can create 🙂
Shop Handmade Ceramics
Ceramic Animal Figurines and PoRcelain Jewelry, fresh from the kiln.
And by fresh I mean scalding hot since each handmade ceramics animal and tableware piece is literally fired to very hot temperatures two to three times in my Montréal studio. Each month, I deliver a new batch of friends and list them all in the ceramics shop. You are in the right place to buy yourself or a loved one the gift of cuteness. Brace yourself for the AAAAAWS ♥ There’s only one downside : each figurine is one of a kind, so you’ll find some sold out pieces from time to time. One way to avoid it : be the first to access the restocks by joining the mailing list (scroll to the bottom if you missed the pop-up) 🙂
Sustainable Art
In addition to being an independent shop and a one woman business, Kness is also an art shop with values. Basic things like : I like the planet we live on and I like both animals and my fellow humans. Making this both as cute as possible and as sustainable as I can was the only way.
Local Handmade Ceramics from Québec, Canada
Each handmade ceramics piece is Made in Québec, Canada. I love working local and global : that’s why I source my materials as close to home as possible, working with Canadian clays and offering pick-up for your Montréal orders. I picked a Canadian packaging company, sourcing recyclable or compostable materials and I ship with Canada Posts for the majority of my orders.
Zero plastics packaging
I package and ship each ceramic animals with paper, recycled and recyclable materials.
One of a kind
Each animal or painting is one of a kind, handcrafted in Canada. What you see is what you get.
Small shop, Great care
Each ceramic animal or porcelain pendant comes in a gift ready illustrated box.
Prints and goodies
For more cuteness on your walls and in your bullet journals, there are adorable illustrations available as prints, mugs and washi tape. Here is a selection of outside shops featuring my work as printed goodies. They are also easier on your wallet, perfect if you still want the aaaws but are on a budget !
