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.

Create flower frogs that lock perfectly onto standard mason jars. No sliding, no floating. This two-component system pairs a geometric patterned cutter and a precision-matched slump mold, gnomengineered for mason jars.
Locking Fit: The included domed slump mold imprints a subtle inner ridge on the bottom of your clay disk. Once fired, your flower frog seats securely onto the jar mouth, reducing shifting during use.
Intricate Pattern: The cutter creates a beautiful geometric design with multiple stem-placement and size options, allowing for effortless, professional-looking floral arrangements.
Studio-Grade Build: Printed in our signature Purple PETG is reinforced to withstand the pressure of repetitive slab work.
