N° 03 · The argument
Three reasons
to skip the gift shop.
These aren't tourist mementos. They're working ceramics - designed, tested, and made by one person, for daily use. Slower to make. Better to live with.

What people say once it arrives.
A delightful ceramics shop in the old town of Piran. We were particularly taken with the nose vases — and the hand-operated lemon squeezers are beautiful and practical, a wonderful gift when paired with local lemons.

Really unique, well-made ceramics at a fair price. Nika makes the pottery all by herself in the store and has a good sense for things that are pretty but also useful — like the Nasenvasen and the lemon squeezer.

Nika is such a lovely and humble person, and her workshop and pottery is really cute. Will definitely stop by next time when around.
