UDUMBARA pottery products are unique pieces made by hand and pottery wheel from wild, local clay from the small village of Kultela in Somero, Southwestern Finland. The material gives the products a wonderfully rich earthy character. Eva emphasizes local clay's unique and ethical value by choosing this local raw material. Locally made with local material, it is genuinely exclusive.
Also, as the sun gives off far more energy than we need to power everything on Earth, we pay our electricity supplier to use solar energy as much as we use energy for our pottery.
🇫🇮 Osaame myös suomea, tervetuloa.🇸🇪 Vi talar också svenska, välkommen.

Pottery Wheel Magic: Make a Self-Watering Plant Pot with Wild Clay! #potterywheelthrowing
"DIY Self-Watering Orchid Pot on the Pottery Wheel | Wild Clay & foraged Finnish Kaolin Tutorial"
Kainuun Kaoliini** 🇬🇧 Subtitles in English 🇬🇧
🇫🇮 Suomeksi tekstitys saatavilla🇫🇮
Join me at UDUMBARA for a pottery journey inspired by nature and Finnish clay! In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to create a self-watering orchid pot - a perfect project for plant lovers looking for a unique, soil-free way to care for their plants. Using wild clay from Somero and high-fired kaolin from Northern Finland, this pot serves as a natural water reservoir, slowly hydrating plants growing directly on its textured surface.
My experience with the Kainuun Kaolin project inspired this project (www.kainuunkaoliini.fi/), where artists explore and forage wild Finnish kaolin. I’ll also use sodium silicate to create a rough texture, helping plants cling to the pot.
Stick around for the fun ending, where I’ll introduce you to my sister Johanna, the “mushroom whisperer,” and her secret patch of Yellowfoot mushrooms!
If you’re in southern Finland, don’t miss the KWUM Ceramics Museum’s winter exhibition on Native clay-it’s an inspiring showcase of local, native clay art.
Thank you for watching, and let’s get started on this pottery adventure!

I love this idea. It makes me want to look even more for a wild clay in my area. I truly hope this design works for you. Will you keep us updated on it?
@@CarisseH Thank you, I will!🙏🏼
Aww please make more content! <3 This was very informative, so appreciate it being in english too!
@@audahdrey Thank you very much, I will!🙇
Congratulations!🎉
Thank You❣
Wonderfull! many thanks for this great vid. good to see beginnings and endings direct from kiln. I must make some, every year I promise myself to make a few , now you have inspired me again. Lovely stuff.
@@mythimnaferrago3481 Thank you. Let me know if there are any other terracotta products you would like recommended. I have a few other projects already, but more is welcome.
@@UDUMBARA_Helsinki I expect there is,I shall have a ponder.
Imagine that is a massage and you are the person that’s getting it
😅
This is so satisfying to watch
Hello from Colorado, USA! Fun to watch you work! I took a ceramics course in art school but my lifelong career has been as a painter. Happy gardening!
Hello! Thank you for watching. Haha, I studied painting but switched to ceramics. My sister went to school in Boulder!
@@UDUMBARA_Helsinkii lived in Boulder for almost 40 years! Fun parallel lives! I will have to visit Helsinki some time!
Wow you did such a good job also you video shots were amazing and inspiring
@@BigOpps-pl2cb Wau❣️ Thank you.
One of those watering pots that you bury? 🤔
No,🤗 But it looks like it. I will get them out of the kiln on Wednesday, and then I will show them. I actually made a video about how to make watering pots. Ollas Earlien is here if you are interested in them. ua-cam.com/video/oGJ0l0ANESU/v-deo.html
You did a great job describing my neighborhood!
Thank you, so happy to hear that ❣️🫣
02130 Thee Best people and everything. Born and raised there
My childhood best friend from Finland lives in JP. Coincidentally, our childhood homes also had the same postal code: 02130. What a coincidence! 🏩
One of the best 'towns' in America. I was born there. Favorite spot is Jamaica Pond.
@@gregorydiatchenko8464 I agree JP really nice. I love the Arboretum and all the old New England-style houses! I lived in Brookline buy Coolidge Corner for a year in my youth. That is quite nice too. Thank you for watching my exploration!
Me too! I agree. 566 Centre St. POND VIEW Apartments
Loved seeing my neighborhood through your eyes!
Thank you for watching. Jamaica Plain is such a lovely neighborhood!
Beautiful video and beautiful traditions ! ❤
Thank you very much, I am so glad you enjoy my attempts at making videos.
Fascinating! Armenia is a beautiful country with a very rich culture. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Thank you for watching! The place was incredibly stunning. My video skills were not enough to bring it out.
Very interesting and nice thank you
Hi Eva...This video touched me. After looking through various videos on the net i found yours with ethical practise. Am wanting to use clay as therapy and mindfulness, am from India, how do I connect with you
Thank You very much, Shalet!
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching ❣️
Great! many thanks for this vid , somewhere I would never had known about, now I have a little info. I hope you might visit again and post more vids, especially if Georgia potters are involved!
Thank You, all new to me too. I will go a meet a master ceramist on Saturday and will make a video about it. Georgia is the birthplace of wine and they make wine in huge terracotta jars. It is already warm like in Finnish summer here! 🌞
Looks amazing.
Big recommendation, so much to see!
😂 Congratulations ! - Three decades 🎉🎉🎉 cracks me up that youwere wearing your watch.Beautiful video!
Thanks ❣️😂 You are not the only one, but it is practical. It is easier to answer the phone with it, rather than grabbing the phone with muddy hands. 😅
Slap the pile
Huzzah!
Udumbara is a flower name as well as a girls name in SriLanka 💖
Hey @StarlightUnderDaSea! It's so cool to know that Udumbara has multiple meanings! The world is full of fascinating connections, isn't it? For me and my pottery, the inspiration behind Udumbara comes from Japanese Buddhist tales.
@@UDUMBARA_Helsinki majority in SL are Buddhists might have the same meaning in sinhala as well. Buddhist myself didn’t know that till now. Thanks for sharing 🥰
Jajaj i like you shop

Miten se pilli ei hajoa savi uunissa
Hei Stina. En ihan ymmärrä kysymystä, miksi hajoaisi?
Wow this is so beautiful ❤❤ We all enjoyed reliving the experience 😍🥰
🥰🫶 ❤❤❤Thanks for bringing me along; it was a blast❣
So encouraged by her talking about ecology of ceramics. I too feel this. And the struggle, importance of 1000x trials, functionality of art.
Thank you Heidi!
What an excellent presentation. It has come at a time when I needed to hear the most. I take away from this many things but especially to "dig deep"
Thank you so much, and it's nice to hear from you. It has been a rollercoaster ride!
Greetings from Ghana! Very inspiring! Hope to find the right clay here to experiment with this for our permaculture garden raised beds! Olla!
Wau! If you come across a brick factory, you might be able to obtain clay from there. O, consider reaching out to a local potter; they (maybe) can make Ollas for you. Thank you for your warm greetings❣
So weird to see Patrick Swayze standing behind you
🤣
Thanks for sharing, and greetings from Canada.
My pleasure ❣️🙇
Can these pots and bowl be used for serving food and drinks? Thank you
As such, Yes, it does not use harmful oxides. However, it is not practical because this kind of ceramics is porous.
@@UDUMBARA_Helsinki Thank you for your reply. 🙂
Hello from Canada! I just found your channel this morning. I'm loving it! I was wondering what the company of your wheels are. I'm new to pottery and was wondering if you could recommend a beginner wheel? Thank you
Hello! Thank You very much. I work mostly with Shimpo ( Nidec) RK-55. It is perfect for learning. And I still like using it even though I have done pottery for 40 years. There is no need to buy wheels with big motors. Throwing pottery is a technique. This is the wheel I use with my students, too. It is a good way to learn to listen to the clay and not use too much physical power. All the best!
Do you leave the Olla in the ground in the winter? We've been discussing this in my class. We're in Canada and can go to -30C. Any chance of breaking? Thanks for your video
Yes, it can break, and I would not. If there is water inside and freezes, it will break (as water expands when it freezes). Also, the frost expands the ground, too. Here in Finland, you can see how the frost breaks the roads every winter. It must be the same in Canada. All the best and thank you for watching🪴😘!
wow what a creative force of energy together your group made, must have been a very special moment in time. Also, enjoyed seeing your north star, god "totem pole" ,felt inspired to make an earth fire air and water sculpture. Looking forward to seeing part 3 , many thanks.
Thank You. 🧡The next one is about Sourdough glazing. It was totally new for me! We also visited a wonderful artist, Giedrius Mazura's home.🪴
We are all miss you and love you Mr Stefano🥹🤗
Although I don’t understand Finnish, I certainly enjoyed watching this video! Thanks ❤
😮 You didn’t get the text translation to English? It should be there.🧡🪴
I’ll check it out.😀
Your video is even better with the translation.🙂 I’m going to share it with my Finnish aunt. She’s an orchid “whisperer” and an artist so your video is perfect!
❤
Fantastic video! Throwing with a highly grogged clay is tough- I admire your skill and ability to do so and still have skin on your hands! 😂 Thanks for demonstrating the two part olla process! Also, nice tip on the speed of the wheel being faster lower down and slower higher up. 😀 I’m part Finnish so it’s nice to see your channel. I’m subbing!❤
Thank you 😊, I am happy if my videos are useful ❣️🪴
Arvostan ❤
Kiitos Katja❣️
I know nothing of pottery making but they are beautiful for sure
Thank you Monica❣️🪴
Wonderful!
🥰
Wow love your videos! 🙏❤
Thank you very much❣
What pleasurable videos to watch. So calming and peaceful and so needed in todays world. My many thanks!
Thank You very much🙇♀️; I try to make optimistic videos. There is a lot of good in the world, too.🧡🪴
beautiful and fascinating, many thanks for the education. I realise the need to celebrate the longest day in Finland , however in France and U.K we take daylight perhaps for granted and do not celebrate it much beyond Druids at Stonehenge and their "Summer Solstice" .
Yes, true, we have to take all out of it.
I'm central TEXAS That would be an asset for our garden ! Great Work
For sure! Ollas were used by indigenous peoples in ancient times. Greetings to Texas, and Thank you.
