The joy of creating form is expressed in Monika Käte Steputh’s pottery work. Since 1997 her unique tablewares, tea ceremony sets, washbasins, stoneware sculptures and individual ash glazes have contained a consciousness of the origin of all beings.

The "Great North" - wild & open space – is Monika's inspiration, her passion and her "soul food", it nourishes her in many ways. The open space is her home, reflects her heart and while she's throwing and creating pottery, she deeply resonates with it. Here is – where she truly learned to love life – not just know about it – simply experience and feel it. Life is Love and Love is Life!
Handmade pottery is not only utilitarian, it is for your daily pleasure and joy. "Every day is new and unique ... so your pottery can be too. Make a connection with what inspires and moves you every day ... and drink a cup of tea"
The pottery is fired up to 1280ºC/2336ºF and therefore it is dishwasher safe. Glazes are lead-free and partly wood ash glazes, celadons, shino and mostly from east asian pottery tradition. Material: clay or porcelain.
