Welcome to my studio
Hi, I’m Michał Koczor, the potter behind OYU Ceramics. I’m thrilled to share my passion for ceramics with you.
As a potter, I’m driven by a desire to create functional art that celebrates the simple moments in life. I believe that handmade pieces have the power to elevate our daily routines and bring us closer to the people and things that matter.
At OYU Ceramics, I take pride in crafting each piece with great care and attention to detail. I produce small batches of unique, high-quality ceramics that stand out from mass-produced goods. My work is inspired by traditional Japanese tea ceremonies and Zen Buddhism, which emphasize the importance of mindfulness and connection.
I’m committed to sustainability and eco-friendliness in my practice. I strive to use materials efficiently and minimize waste, ensuring that each creation is not only beautiful but also environmentally responsible. My pottery features a range of techniques and firings, including gas, soda, and wood-fired kilns, which allow me to experiment with different textures, glazes and finishes.
My journey with ceramics began with a deep appreciation for the craft, pottery process and a desire to create pieces that creates moments of reflection and connection. I’ve found that pottery is a meditative practice that merges craftsmanship with mindfulness, allowing me to connect with others and find joy in the simple things.
Thank you for visiting OYU Ceramics. I invite you to explore my collections and find the perfect piece that resonates with you. Your support means the world to me, and I’m grateful to be able to share my passion with you.

Light and delicate with fascinating hues, with greenish and carrot-orange hints that are hard to capture on camera. A stunning balance and glossy texture.

I can’t even describe how surprisingly well this shape fits in the hand. Smooth streaks run across the dark tone, creating a mysterious, magical aura. Great, surprisingly smooth feel.
