Gnomineered Studio Tools

I believe that every lump of clay is an adventure waiting to happen, but I’ve realized that part of the magic is sharing it.

The Gnomineered Collection isn’t about being a "pro"—it’s about making the messy process of pottery feel like playtime. Every tool here started as a way to make my own studio days more fun, and now they’re physical treasures for you to use, too.

We manufacture everything in our signature Plum Purple PETG. I chose Overture’s specific blend because it’s "LEGO-tough" and stiff enough to hold a precision edge, waterproof for the splash pan, and built to survive a lifetime of getting muddy.

Whether you’re a weekend dabbler or a long-time maker, these tools are here to help you skip the frustration and get straight to the "Melted Magic." Let’s get our hands dirty and make something wonderful.

Gnomineered for the Professional any Potter.
