Kaeleb Ngatai | Uku Coffee Cup

Handcrafted by Kaeleb Ngatai, this uku clay coffee cup brings contemporary Māori ceramic practice into an everyday ritual. Ngatai’s work explores Māori sovereignty, traditional pottery practices, and the evolving voice of uku in Aotearoa and beyond. Having exhibited, taught, and worked across Aotearoa and Melbourne, his pieces carry both cultural depth and functional beauty. Made to be held, used, and lived with, this cup turns your daily coffee into something more considered: an object shaped by story and hand.
