We are an artisan ceramics studio creating beautiful pieces for your everyday use and enjoyment. We use both contemporary and traditional techniques to create homewares that encourage you to slow down, take a breathe, and experience mindful living. Based in a beautiful garden setting in Newbury, Manawatu, we are deeply inspired by the natural world and seek to reflect that in our works. Please follow us on Instagram @urban_charm to keep up to date with our designs and latest offerings.

  • Our Shapes

    Inspired by nature, crafted by hand, we design our own items and throw them on either an electric pottery wheel or a traditional kick wheel.

  • Our Colours

    We create our own signature glazes which are also invariably inspired by nature. We fire using either electric, gas or wood fired kilns.
