Our Story

Bring Wonder to Your Everyday

Handcrafted Artistry Crafted for Journeys, Shaped by Nature

Nova Ceramics was born out of an affinity for everyday rituals. Cultivating beauty in presence.


In a world of disposable objects and hurried routines, Nova sets out to help you slow down and ritualize the moment with artisan objects. Our ceramic travel mugs carry the soul of hand-crafted artistry that fit seamlessly into modern life.


Each mug draws from the language of the natural world. Earthen-colors mirror the oceans and nebulae, sunsets and canyon walls. Textures swirl like a wave or glow like the cosmos. Each one-of-a-kind piece is a small universe of its own.


Nova Ceramics invites you to slow down, reconnect with your surroundings, and enjoy the now.

Welcome to the Nova Life

We started Nova Ceramics because we believe that coffee just tastes better in a ceramic cup. As long-time coffee aficionados, we found our own morning brew felt flat in plastic or stainless steel travel mugs. This realization planted the seed for our coffee mug movement. We decided to embark on a mission to create vibrant, handcrafted objects that offer a small ritual of presence. Refusing to settle for pure functionality, and conscious of the planetary impact of take-away cups, we imagined drink-ware that marries handcrafted beauty with delicious taste. That’s why each mug preserves the true flavor of your brew, keeps it warm, and travels with you, wherever the journey.

Our Brand Ethos

At Nova Ceramics, we hope to inspire wonder in every cup, and in every moment.
