“Perhaps one of the best, and simultaneously worst, ceremonies during this time is sitting down and chatting during the big holiday meal. Grandpa Earl lost his filter back in '98, Aunt Sue's had too much spiked eggnog, and your Gen Z nephew can't stop talking about his new finance podcast.

Assign your guests plates based on their personalities and interests… Clearly Aunt Sue's weird new hairy boyfriend is Sasquatch—that's a no-brainer.” — Calamityware

🧵Calamityware

‘We bring monsters and mishaps to life in a wide range of unusually unsettling giftware.’

“Calamityware is a small, eight-person company headquartered in Pittsburgh. Our boardroom is a living room, which we share with a dog and a cat.”

🧵Calamityware porcelain - Where it's made

“These porcelain pieces are fired in Poland at one of the oldest and most accomplished porcelain workshops in the world. The Cmielow team traces their start to 1790. Work from these craftspeople can be found in museums and in the palaces of royalty. Our porcelain designs are in-glaze, which means slightly melted into the surface of the piece, to ensure a beautiful crisp image for years to come.”

Christmas Could Be Worse
Calamityware, 28 Oct 2025

“Back in June, we ran a crowdfunding campaign for a Christmas-themed dinner plate and, we're happy to announce, it's finally in stock!

We dubbed it Christmas Could Be Worse because at least you won't be dealing with filching elves, mad snowmen, and colossal gingerbread cookies this year. Uncle Mearle coming to dinner with his new pet python is nothing compared to that.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wit & quality

I'm going to toot my own horn for just a moment!

These are my first teapots since taking Po Wen Liu's workshop, and I can tell my craftsmanship has leveled up. They still need to be decorated and glazed.

i'll never achieve perfection, but the fun is learning and getting better than I was the day before.
Life is like that too :)
