About HEY GING CERAMICS

HI! I’m GIllian, the maker behind Hey Ging. Pottery stole my heart. It started as a way to be creative on my own, in my own space, loosing myself in the quiet of the spinning wheel and wet clay on my hands. Slowly all my kitchen wares have been replaced by things I’ve made and I’m finding more enjoyment drinking my morning beverage (mine is a dirty adaptogen blend) or eating my lunch (I love grain bowls) from these unique handmade pieces of pottery. I’m inspired by the most eclectic things. Desert sunsets, old cafe racers, beat up leather jackets, 1970’s California beach culture, the fringed santa fe print boots my mom wore in the 80’s, the juxtaposition of neons and neutrals. I’ll stop there, but I could go on…… Moving from LA to San Diego, I’ve found myself having more time to spend in the studio, to progress and explore. And best of all more time to make pieces to share with you. I hope they bring you just as much joy in all your own everyday rituals. A note on the name…The name Ging came from my little cousin who decided Ging Ging was easier to say than Gillian. Since then my whole family, every child, and my oldest friends all call me Ging. Prononced with a “J” and rhymes with “Ding”. So if you ever see me around town feel free to say “Hey, Ging!” Read their story
