About

Unique native inspired art. Specializing in pottery and beadwork by Nancy Oakley.

Nancy creates stone polished, smoke fired, traditionally and culturally inspired pieces of ceramic art. We can hardly wait to see her stunning wares in person! They are as beautiful and inspiring as Nancy’s favourite quote, “she is a beautiful piece of broken pottery, put back together by her own hands, and a critical world judges her cracks while missing the beauty of how she made herself whole again.”
