Aditional Information

Hoops Collection – Minimalist Ceramic with a Circular Soul

The Hoops Collection is a celebration of everyday design with a sculptural twist. Inspired by the purity and symbolism of the circle, these pieces bring simplicity, intention, and balance into your home. They speak softly but stay present — practical objects with a poetic line.

Each item is handmade in small series, using high-fired stoneware and natural, food-safe glazes. From toothbrush holders to soap dishes or catchall bowls, this collection is all about the small rituals of daily life — elevating what’s often overlooked.

The forms are clean, round, and smooth. Easy to pair, easy to use, and never boring. This is minimalist ceramic for those who value quiet beauty and tactile joy. It’s where Portuguese craftsmanship meets modern living.

If you’re drawn to sculptural forms, discover the Hourglass Collection. For something more textured and raw, explore the Coils Collection. Or, if you’re curious to try ceramics yourself, have a look at our ceramic workshops in Lisbon.

What is the concept behind the Hoops Collection?

The Hoops Collection is rooted in the symbolism of the circle — a shape that represents continuity, harmony, and the gentle flow of daily rituals. The pieces are designed to be both functional and visually balanced, with soft edges and a timeless presence. They're made to serve, but also to be seen and felt.

Can I mix pieces from Hoops with other collections in the store?

Yes. Hoops is designed with simplicity and neutrality in mind, so it blends beautifully with other styles. Whether you’re combining it with the sculptural lines of the Hourglass Collection or the raw textures of Coils, it creates a coherent and harmonious aesthetic. It’s ideal for building a personal and layered ceramic set.

Are the pieces handcrafted individually?

Every single item is made by hand in our Lisbon studio. That means no two pieces are exactly the same. Slight variations in form, glaze, or tone are not flaws — they’re part of what makes each object unique. You’ll know a human made it. And that matters.

Is this collection suitable as a gift?

Absolutely. Hoops pieces are minimalist, elegant, and easy to use — which makes them thoughtful and versatile gifts. Whether it’s for a housewarming, birthday, or just because, they bring beauty to small routines. We also offer sustainable packaging and can include a handwritten note on request.
