Niamh Hejsak is a London-based photographer and ceramicist who utilises a variety of clays, slips, and layering of glazes to create unique vases, mugs, bowls, and more, all with a deliberate human touch. Drawn to the physicality and tangibility of working with clay, she is mindful of how her products would interact alongside nature, and she aims to create functional ceramics that invite interaction and bring quiet beauty to people's everyday lives.

Our weekly Nice Things Edit is a curated Monday round-up of what we’re loving right now. From our favourite pieces on Glassette to a recipe, a watch, a read, a place to visit, a restaurant, and a gift worth bookmarking.
Each week, every member of the Glassette team shares their current favourites, whether that’s new arrivals, pieces we’ve spotted trending, or timeless finds we can’t stop thinking about. Think of it as a weekly dose of joy, discovery, and design inspiration, handpicked by the Glassette team.

Nice Things This Week

The right ceramics change a table entirely. Not in a curated, every-element-considered way - but in the quieter sense that a well-made bowl or a frilled candlestick can make everything around it feel more deliberate.
Whether they taught themselves through grief, channelled two decades of fashion industry expertise into clay, or found their way to a wheel somewhere between a career pivot and a lockdown, Britain's makers share a certain sensibility: handmade but not precious, expressive but not loud. These are the ten makers whose work we keep returning to - and whose pieces are increasingly hard to get hold of once the drops go live.
