About

 Welcome to Sacred + Céramique

Sacred + Céramique exists to connect you with your ancestors through handcrafted vessels made with reverence and intention. These ceremonial bowls and cups are more than ceramics — they are portals for communion, protection, and ancestral remembrance.

Each piece is consecrated, prayed over, and marked with a sacred symbol. Many feature the veve of Papa Legba, the gatekeeper who opens the way between the physical and spiritual realms. Others carry Adinkra symbols representing protection, justice, beauty, and love. These symbols act as spiritual keys, inviting the presence and guidance of benevolent ancestors and energies.

We invite you to begin by calling in the Divine or Higher Power you believe in, asking that only beings of the highest light be present. Inspired by Indigenous Taino, Haitian Indigenous, and African diasporic traditions, this work honors the wisdom and memory of those who walked before us.

Our art is an offering — a reclaiming of ancestral memory and a celebration of spiritual continuity. These vessels are made for those ready to listen, to offer, and to receive.

 

We also offer sacred bowls and cups without indigenous symbols, giving everyone the freedom to choose what resonates with them. The ceremonial offering bowls are for heartfelt offerings — food, tokens such as crystals, or gifts your ancestors would cherish. The cups are to offer libations such as water or coffee, or you can simply enjoy this as your favorite ceremonial coffee or matcha cup. These consecrated items are designed to grace your altar or sacred space, inviting you to create your own rituals. Each céramique serves as a conduit for personal transformation, grounding you in the wisdom of those who came before you. By honoring your ancestors, you strengthen your connection to your truest Self. 

Sacred + Céramique welcomes people of all backgrounds and beliefs. Whether you seek comfort, clarity, or connection, we offer ceremonial tools and experiences — blending ancestral pottery, intuitive mediumship, and ancestral wisdom — to help you create meaningful rituals, commune with your lineage, and awaken a deep sense of belonging. When you uplift your ancestors, they uplift you. The deeper your roots, the stronger your connection with Self.

 

Meet the Artist

I’m Vanessa LeMaistre, the creator behind Sacred + Céramique — an artist, author, and shaman with an M.A. in Resilient Leadership. This foundation shapes my passion for guiding others toward self-discovery, empowerment, and sustainable living through ancestral connection.

My work blends ancestral wisdom with modern craftsmanship to create ceremonial pottery that help cultivate clarity, healing, and spiritual growth. These are each handcrafted for you to build a deeper connection with your Higher Self, intuition, and spirit team. 

Rooted in my Haitian heritage, I am devoted to destigmatizing the harmful narratives that have long misrepresented our culture. As an intuitive artist, each piece is handcrafted with sacred symbols, thoughtful intentions, and energy to help you connect with the spirit world and honor your lineage.

Through my art, I offer a tangible way to reconnect with your ancestors — a practice that can transform your life and deepen your path to healing. Each bowl and cup is a gateway for spiritual growth — a bridge between past, present, and future — guiding you toward clarity, empowerment, and connection along your unique path.
