Our Story: Where Nature Meets Artistry
At Pipphy's Curiosities, we believe your home should feel like a sanctuary – alive with the textures of nature and the soul of handmade art. Founded by Wenqing Liu and Pipphy Xiao, we create unique handcrafted pottery and curate living decor that celebrates raw, organic beauty.
Why We Do It:
-
Sustainability First: Every ceramic piece is shaped from eco-conscious clay and fired using low-impact methods.
-
Imperfection, Perfected: Inspired by wabi-sabi philosophy, our designs honor cracks, asymmetry, and the stories etched by time.
-
For Plant Lovers: Our pottery isn’t just art – it’s a home for your greenery, designed with drainage and breathability in mind.
Our Philosophy: Beauty in the Unrefined
“Wabi-sabi” isn’t just a term to us – it’s a practice. We embrace:
-
Natural Imperfections: Glazes that mimic moss, uneven edges that whisper of human hands.
-
Timeless Functionality: Pots that age gracefully, becoming more cherished with each scratch.
- Slow Craftsmanship: No two pieces are identical, just like the plants they cradle.
