Customizable Silhouette: Tailor your plate to your personal style by choosing between our traditional Flat Rim for a classic look or our modern Tall Rim for a sleek, contemporary feel.

The Perfect Size: With a 7-8” diameter, it is the ideal scale for breakfast pastries, desserts, or small shared plates.
Everyday Resilience: Crafted from high-quality stoneware that is food, microwave, and dishwasher safe—designed to be used and loved every single day.
The Mission: The Heart of KJ Pottery
At KJ Pottery, we believe that the objects you hold should be as meaningful as the conversations they witness. Based in Spokane, Washington, our woman-owned studio is dedicated to the "slow made" movement. In a world of mass production, we maintain that there is significant value in the intentional time and individual skill required to create something by hand. Our pottery is what we do, but bringing joy, connection, and purpose to your home is why we do it.
