I make ceramic tableware and flower vases. I like white-color ceramics, so most of my works are coated with a white glaze. More recently, I have created more pieces with pale green patterns on a white background as well as black pieces. Because ceramics can be easily customized by selecting combinations of various clays and glazes, we can generate handmade ceramics based on our inspiration. I also create pieces in a variety of colors and shapes according to my customers’ requests.

【Hooks and Luxe】

Hooks and Luxe is an NYC based accessories brand that the designer, Ryoko, creates by hand with meticulous care.

She is originally from Japan and believes that it influences the softness and delicacy in her design, showing up in her jewelry, which could be the perfect accessories for adding a little dainty sparkle to your outfit.
