Ceramics made with feeling.
Fellow Ceramics is the delightful, emotional, and sometimes ridiculous work of Chelsea Wilkins.
This pottery is created to celebrate all the ups, downs, and big feelings that human life has to offer. Fellows are all about empathy, self acceptance, honesty, and letting you know that you’re not alone.
Fellows love friends.
Nice to meet you!
I’m Chelsea, and I (mostly) make the pots.
I decided to create these little weird friends because I wanted my work to help me feel something. I think I must have been born with a lot of extra mirror neurons, because nothing brings a tear to my eye like looking at another face with a tear in its eye. So I decided to make all types of emotional face pots, because I thought maybe they’d stir up a little bit of feeling in you, too!
My pots are completely handmade. My assistant and bestie Malaika is a ninja on the wheel, and I do all the other bits! The eyebrows are coated in a delectable 22K gold finish, which I just can’t live without.
I live in St. Louis, Missouri and I work out of my home. My husband and my little son light up my life, and I enjoy hiking, reading, and podcasts as often as I can. I've recently started gardening, and if I can manage to grow at least one strawberry to eat, it will definitely be the most expensive, emotionally taxing, and labor-intensive strawberry I've ever eaten.

“I now own 3 fellows (no brag) and they make me so happy when I pour my coffee or hot water over a tea bag. They also look so nice together like a little mug family!”
