The constant hunt for something unique to gift never ends, and nor do our home improvement schemes. Here comes, All Things Clay, to our rescue. Born out of Bengaluru-based Aimee Rajan’s interest in miniature cartoons figurines and caricature, the studio hand sculpts everything from a miniature 3D portrait of a couple to 2D family portraits, miniature food art and fridge magnets.

“I began experimenting and playing around with food miniatures made from bakeable clay in 2015 and gifted them to friends and family,” she says. “Soon, they started expressing interest in commissioning custom pieces.” Rajan, who studied animation, multimedia and graphic design, began putting serious thought into making this a viable small business. She taught herself nuanced skills to make more detailed pieces, and the result is showpieces, food magnets, frames, jewellery, dog tags and anything you can imagine.
