Welcome to a small pottery workshop in Latvia, where things are done from the heart and with great love and care! 🌿
I am Jogita, the ceramic artist and sole creator behind Zuze Pet and Jogita Art Studio. I spend my daily life in the studio with my trusted ally, my dog Pepe, creating beautiful and functional ceramic dishes for your four-legged pets. On international platforms like Etsy, my studio is also widely known as Zuze Ceramics.
How did the name Zuze Pet come about?
30 years ago, our family had a wonderful dog girl named Zuze, who made my childhood special and rich in warm memories. In honor of Zuze, I decided to call my pet shop Zuze Pet. She would have loved to eat and drink water from such beautiful and mindful ceramic dishes.
Unlike large-scale manufacturers, there are no assembly lines here. Each dish is handmade; no two are exactly alike. But that’s exactly what I love—character in every line, glaze drop, and shape. I am personally involved in every step, from hand-kneading the clay to hand-stamping each pet's name letter by letter.
The Art of Slow-Made
The 4-week lead time is a testament to this careful process. Quality takes time, and my "slow-made" philosophy ensures durability through 3 separate firing cycles in the kiln to ensure maximum strength and a perfect finish.
Shipping & Trust
As a small EU-based studio in Latvia, I prioritize a direct and transparent connection with my customers. When shipping to Germany and throughout Europe, there are no customs duties.
Zuze Pet / Zuze Ceramics is a legally registered business. You can follow my daily creative process on Instagram @zuzepet and read reviews from hundreds of satisfied pet owners worldwide on my website and Etsy shop.
Choose dishes designed to pamper your pet!
Best wishes from Jogita and Pepe
