Trillium Pottery: the Nutshell
Hello!
Welcome to my passion project: Trillium Pottery.
I am in love with pottery and the ability to create functional artwork that others can enjoy! This is completely a one-woman-show, and I create all my art in my home studio.
My business is mainly inspired by my love of home (the PNW, where I have lived my whole life), nature's beauty and the inspiration and energy I derive from being outdoors. Trillium Pottery is therefore, a little piece of who I am and what I love most in life.
I hope my pieces bring a little art and imagination to your world.
Peace and love,
Heather Mattole
Magick for the Everyday
Adding flair to cupboards since 2020. Anything from mugs and cups, to bowls and plates! I love making artistic pieces for everyday uses!
Shop Updates
I work in small batches and will post my recent collections on this site on specified dates and times. Check my Instagram for behind the scenes updates on what I'm currently working on as well as announcements for batch drops!
Custom Work
I have very limited availability for custom work. I will announce via email newsletter when I have open spots available for commissions, so sign up for the email list at the bottom of this page if this is something you are interested in!
FAQ
Sizing details
Because these wares are handmade, all the sizes are approximate. In regard to volume of mugs, vases or other vessels that may hold liquid, I measured the amount of capacity myself per object using water,
Care instructions
Most of my wares are dishwasher and microwave safe, but some may not be due to additions of decorative rocks or 22k gold luster. Please check the item description for details about care.
Also, as with any ceramic piece, it is best not to pour boiling water into any of the vessels.
What to expect of handmade items?
All of my wares and pieces are handmade either on a pottery wheel or simply with my own hands. Please do not expect me to have the ability to recreate an exact replica of another piece. Also, measurements are approximate, things may not be perfectly straight or perfectly squared. Small and harmless flaws are sometimes inevitable.
Food Safe?
All my wares are made with commercially made food safe glazes. Even if an item is considered a "seconds" piece and is discounted, it will be food safe! I will never sell you something that I am not confident is safe for use around food or beverage!
Purely decorative pieces may not always be food safe, but I will be sure to make that clear if that is the case!
Custom and personalized orders
Email is the only place I will communicate my availability/openings for commission work. Please sign up if you are interested in having me do custom pieces for you! I will have a limited number of spots available, so get in touch after I announce that my books are open.
Wholesale availability
Currently, I do not have availability for wholesale.

Let customers speak for us
I love my new mug so much! I follow you on Instagram so I can see your process (and because you are awesome)! The mug I ended up buying was my favorite of the last batch and I can’t believe I was lucky enough to get it! I was sure it was going to sell at the booth you ran. I guess it was destined for me <3 Thank you for your creativity and dedication to your craft!
I’ve been waiting years for a piece of Heather’s gorgeous art, and it did not disappoint!! I love it so much, thank you for sharing your creativity and passion making the world a little happier with each piece.
To say I enjoy my Zelda mug is an understatement. The craftswoman-ship is unprecedented. I have been enjoying sipping tea while I rescue Zelda all over again. Priceless investment!
Great customer service, and excellent work! That's why I have 3 of them. :)
I’ve ordered from this wonderful artist a couple of times! She makes beautiful pottery and is so professional with her communication and shipping. And she has such a fun instagram page! Highly recommend getting some of her work if you can catch it. Sells out quick!
I am literally using it now! Such a gorgeous piece for my collection. I’m so happy with the purchase.
The colors on the glaze are rich and lovely, and the patterns and texture are beautiful and fun. It pretty immediately became my new daily go-to coffee mug. Thanks for sharing your art with the world!
We LOVE the mug. Amazing design and makes us feel a little bit of the Pacific Northwest here on the east. Incredible carving and the drips covering the designs are perfect. It’s my new favorite mug!
I love my new mug! It’s a lovely design that easily holds my morning tea. Both the geometric pattern and glaze perfectly complement each other. Also, it came carefully packaged with two tea bags ☕️☕️ Everything about Trillium Pottery from creation to shipping is thoughtfully done ♥️
