About

Yolkeye is the creative outlet of partners Kim and Jake, they hand make ceramics from their dining room and fire them in a micro courtyard in Melbourne. Each piece is designed to be sometimes decorative, sometimes functional, but always fun.

Why is it called Yolkeye? Jake is an anime enthusiast and is inspired by the Japanese spirits and creatures known as Yōkai. The name is a play on words and his personal take on them. He started making creature sculptures inspired by the high percentile size of our baby son's head but our work evolved as Kim joined in. While our creations take on a few different directions, they all share a common theme of whimsy and a bit of nostalgia.
