ZZIEE Ceramics

Important news! Our showroom will have limited hours this summer, but the studio will be open to our members more than ever! The showroom will be open Friday-Sunday 11am-5pm, and by appointment Monday-Thursday. Members can use the studio 7 days a week, 9am-9pm.

If you’re looking to take a class with us this summer, we have lots of weekend workshops, as well as 5-week courses!

We are open all weekend (including Memorial Day!) so come by and pay us a visit 👋🏼 We’ve got lots of mugs in stock, as well as other cute ceramics, pottery tools, and more!

Just got a bunch of Droplet Incense Holders out of the kiln! They come in speckled white, raw black clay, raw red clay, and even a beautiful new emerald color glaze! 🔥🪔

Got some mugs in stock finally! This green glaze on black clay has been one of my all time favorite mug colors since I first released it…in 2018 I think? Timeless color that’s somehow both bold and subtle at the same time 🌲

Hello! Our Yucca Valley studio and showroom will be closed for a few days over the next two weeks:

April 19-May 2: Closed
May 3-5: Open 10am-6pm
May 6-9: Closed

We will resume normal hours on Friday, May 10th! Any online orders placed between April 29 and May 8 will ship out on May 9th ✨

We’re closed today (Friday March 15) due to me having a cold 🤧

See you tomorrow hopefully!

Join us for a pottery class this spring! We have 5 week courses if you want to really explore the whole ceramic process. But for less of a commitment, we offer 1 hour throwing workshops the first weekends of each month. And private lessons for everything in between! All skill levels welcome 🏆🏺💕

I’ve been working on a refresh of my core line of ceramics, specifically the glazes. Here’s a sneak peak of what the new vibe is! Some new stuff and some old stuff. I’m happy with how much more cohesive the color palette is. I think it better reflects the desert flora that inspire me so much 🌵

New mug alert! 🚨 I’m really into this new glaze combo, which I’m calling Cholla after the cactus everyone loves to hate. These mugs are much smoother than real cholla 🌵 Also, this is the first time I’ve departed from the shape of my Classic Mug in nearly 7 years, so I’m more than ready to change things up! More to come…

Just got some mugs out the kiln—speckled white (Dune) and glossy pink (Strawberry Milkshake) 💕 Two of our all time most popular glazes!

Special edition mugs for Valentine’s Day 🥰 Hand thrown, hand painted, hand made—by me! 🤲

Our next 5-week wheel throwing class begins on February 1! Join us, why don’t you? No experience necessary, but if you have some, that’s okay too! Everyone gets a 25 lb bag of clay and can come and use the studio on weekends to practice. We cover all the basics of learning how to use the potter’s wheel, including centering, trimming, and throwing basic forms. Students get to glaze all their own work as well. Class is held Thursday evenings, from 6-8:30, in our Yucca Valley studio. 🏺🌵

The end of the year is upon us! Our holiday hours are as follows:
- Dec. 24: 10am-6pm
- Dec. 25-28: Closed
- Dec. 29-31: 10am-6pm
- Jan. 1: Closed
- Jan. 2: 10am-6pm

And we have some great last minute gifts in stock for the ceramics/art lover in your life! Come say hi ❄️

We’ve got a few spots open in this week’s Throwing Thursday workshop! Want to try wheel throwing, but aren’t ready to commit to a multi-week class? Then this one-hour workshop is for you! Everyone gets to make one pot and it will be glazed and returned to you 2-3 weeks after the workshop ✨ Throwing Thursdays are the first Thursday of each month, from 6-7pm. Join us this Thursday!

Next gift guide is here and this one’s for the hand builders! Whether they’re just getting started on their clay journey, or are a seasoned pro, we’ve got something for everyone. Even some tools that would be great for the younger artists in your life. Available online and in our yucca valley showroom ✨

Well, I heard it’s a big week for shopping, so I made this gift guide for all those who are shopping for the ceramicist in their life.

I’m obsessed with vintage ceramics books and magazines, so that’s why this flyer looks like this! Also, how about those coils?! 🥴 Anyway, join us for a class, won’t you?

Hello!! We are back in action after our August hiatus :) And that means classes are too! We have two 5-week courses beginning in October for anyone looking to dive into the world of clay. And we also have a new class—a one-time one-hour workshop for those who just want to dip their toes into the aforementioned clay world. We will be having more workshops coming up too, and we can’t wait to share them with ya!
