Creating Your First Ceramic Vessel

Lilly Maetzig is a ceramist from New Zealand who is based in London. After experimenting with clay in art school, Lilly decided to further her pottery skills with classes and has been sculpting ever since.

Lilly founded her own ceramics brand Mäe Ceramics in 2016. Her work explores the contrast between the texture of raw and glazed clay to expose the natural qualities of her finished objects. She sells her objects through retail and wholesale channels, with most of her customers finding her through Instagram where her work is appreciated by over 45K followers. Her clients include restaurants and cafés around the globe, design shops like Yonobi Studio in Copenhagen, and events like Google Playtime.
