A Meeting of Fire, Earth, and Imagination

There is something eternal about the fusion of earth and fire — the ancient alchemy that turns raw clay into art. At Nateva Jewellery, this transformation lies at the heart of our Ceramic Jewellery Collection, where traditional ceramic craftsmanship meets modern silver artistry.

Each pendant begins as a blank ceramic stone — pure, tactile, full of potential — before being kiln-fired, glazed, and lovingly set in 925 sterling silver. It’s a process that bridges centuries of artistry, from ancient Mediterranean pottery to contemporary design minimalism.

From Clay to Kiln: The Craft

Every ceramic stone tells a story of patience and precision. Hand-shaped from fine clay, the pieces are first dried, then fired in the kiln at over 1000°C — a stage that crystallises their strength and brilliance.

Some are left as blank canvases, ready to hold your personal memory, image, or artwork through our personalised ceramic jewellery service. Others are transformed into ready-made ceramic art pendants, featuring classic paintings, sacred icons, or modern art prints sealed forever within the glaze.

This process is both ancient and innovative — a reflection of the Greek heritage of craftsmanship and our studio’s continuous dialogue with modern design.

The Fusion of Silver and Ceramic

While ceramic offers warmth and individuality, silver provides structure and shine. Each piece is framed in handcrafted 925 sterling silver, creating a striking contrast between matte ceramic textures and luminous metal.

Our silversmiths shape each frame by hand — hammering, engraving, and polishing until the balance feels just right. This harmony of materials embodies the Nateva design philosophy: “Where the permanence of silver meets the poetry of ceramic.”

Personalisation: Art that Belongs to You

What makes the Ceramic Jewellery Collection truly special is its personal nature. Customers can upload a design, a photo, or a symbolic artwork — something deeply personal — and our artisans transfer it with precision onto the ceramic surface before firing.

Each piece becomes one of a kind, an emotional artefact, a wearable memory. This makes Nateva’s ceramic jewellery the perfect choice for gifts, anniversaries, or wedding keepsakes — timeless and meaningful.

The Inspiration Behind the Design

The inspiration for this collection comes from the textures of life itself — the feel of clay, the shimmer of silver, the intimacy of art. Our designs balance simplicity and emotion, allowing each ceramic piece to carry its own quiet power.

Some pendants recall ancient Greek amulets, while others evoke the modernity of abstract art and minimal form. The result is a jewellery line that’s both timeless and distinctly Nateva — sophisticated yet soulful.

A Modern Heirloom

Unlike mass-produced jewellery, each ceramic pendant is handmade, numbered, and unique. It’s meant to last — not just in material, but in meaning.

Over time, these pendants become modern heirlooms: symbols of personal stories, milestones, and the art of individuality. From weddings to everyday wear, they blend effortlessly with any style — contemporary, classic, or bohemian.

Sustainable Craftsmanship

Every ceramic pendant is created with sustainability in mind. Our artisans use locally sourced materials and small-batch firing methods that reduce waste and energy use. We believe in slow jewellery — creating fewer, more meaningful pieces that honour both craft and planet.
