You Have to Check Out This One-Stop Shop for Ceramics by Local Potters

Like many, I once considered mugs a rather uninspired gift, often ranking them alongside picture frames and socks. My tastes have since evolved, and now I find myself adding mug after mug to my collection.

I’ve gone from collecting simple mugs with cute prints to merchandise from trendy brands and café-quality cups and saucers. My current favourites, however, are the unique ceramics created by Filipino potters. The craftsmanship and artistry in these pieces make them far more than just a cup; they are a true pleasure to add to any collection.

Nikkoni Home offers ceramics by Filipino potters, all in one place

If you love collecting stoneware, then ready your wallets: Nikkoni Home offers a wide selection of locally crafted pieces that include mugs, bowls, pitchers, plates, and vases. Their lineup of Filipino potters boasts names such as Mia Casal, EJ Espiritu, Ugu Bigyan, Monica Antonio, Rosa Mirasol, and Sagada Pottery. The best part? They ship nationwide!

A few of us from the TripZilla Philippines team actually placed orders ourselves — and we were happy not only with our mugs, but with Nikkoni’s great customer service. We loved that our items were thoughtfully wrapped in eco-friendly honeycomb packaging, too.

Check out some of our actual picks below:
