Inspired by the tide
Welcome to Cee Shells Art and Ceramics, based in Torbay, Auckland, New Zealand. Here, natural coastal beauty meets the art and science of handmade pottery.
A passion born from the shoreline
I have always been deeply fascinated by shells, the ocean, and marine life. I can spend hours wandering along a beach, exploring rock pools, and studying the organic patterns carved by the sea. That deep coastal connection shapes every single ceramic piece I create, bringing the gentle spirit of the shore straight into your living space.
Where chemistry meets ceramic art
In the quiet solitude of my Auckland studio, art blends with science. Holding a Bachelor of Science degree with a focus on chemistry, I find the alchemy of glazing truly captivating. I create considered combinations of glazes that react in the kiln to create rich, colourful, shimmering surfaces reminiscent of seafoam, rock surfaces, and deep tidal waters.
Bringing calm and wonder into your home
Every shell sculpture, vessel, bowl, and piece is crafted to evoke a sense of tranquil reflection and quiet mindfulness. My hope is that these one-of-a-kind glaze combinations mesmerize and delight, serving as gentle daily reminders of nature's endless wonder. Discover the piece that brings warmth and quiet pleasure into your home.
