About
My office wasn’t always the Umi Goods studio—it was the ocean. As a marine mammalogist, I spent a decade studying the incredible creatures that call the sea home. But eventually, the pull of a different kind of "tide" led me to trade my fish covered gear for a potter's wheel. Umi Goods was born from blending my scientific background with a lifelong passion for the arts.
My mission is to capture the exact feeling of being near the water—that sense of peace, wonder, and a little bit of whimsey—and distill it into small-batch ceramic objects. I hope that my art will bring you the same joy I feel when I’m seaside.

Care & Policies
Shipping & Delivery
Once an order has been scanned by the carrier, Umi Goods is no longer responsible for lost, delayed, or stolen packages. Please ensure your shipping address is secure. If a package is marked as "Delivered" but you cannot find it, please contact your local post office.
Care Instruction
To ensure the longevity of your handmade ceramics, I highly recommend handwashing all pieces. While some may technically be dishwasher safe, the high heat and harsh detergents can degrade the glaze over time.
Disclaimer
While most of my functional pieces are food safe, any items featuring Gold Luster or Mother of Pearl Luster are not food safe and should be used for decorative purposes only. These metallic finishes are also strictly NOT microwavable as they contain real precious metals and will spark.
Returns
Due to the small-batch, made-to-order nature of my work, all sales are final. If an item arrives broken, please email me a photo of the piece and the packaging within 48 hours of delivery. I will do my best to offer a refund or a replacement (keeping in mind that replacements take time).
