Intimate objects and experiences for discerning pleasure seekers My passion for pleasure and porcelain has lead me on a wild, wonderful and unconventional path.
I studied a BA Hons in Ceramic Design but little did I know back then that my fascination with clay and sensuality would be start a long term love affair… After graduating in 2006 I began creating pleasure tools that celebrate sex, sensuality and connection and aim to challenge the way that we view masturbation, pleasure and sex toys. I founded my workshops in 2017 to enable others to bring creativity, craft and a sense of fun to their pleasure practices with personalised porcelain pleasure tools; our capacity for pleasure expands when we combine it with intention, connection and our own creative juice! My workhops and pieces have been featured in Crafts Magazine, Marie Claire, Wall Paper, Grazia, Mashable and TimeOut and collaborations include Coco de Mer, Studio Sexus, Chakrubs, Noyau, Jay Rose Tattoo, Servadio and Brunello.
I’m delighted to finally share that I’ll be joining the beautiful clinic as Reiki Master + Sound Practitioner in Residence on Wednesdays & alternate Saturdays.
Drawing on the practices that have helped me ground, restore and find a deeper sense wellbeing, I’ll be offering 1:1 Reiki sessions alongside sound, creating space to pause, switch off and reconnect with yourself.
I’ve been working with Reiki and sound for a number of years and I’m looking forward to bringing these practices into the Fitzrovia clinic and sharing them with you.
Bookings are now open via / pfeffersal.com.

It’s been a while since I properly introduced myself here and a lot has changed so I figured it’s about time...
I’m Adele. An artist and facilitator working with clay, ritual, sound and energy. I’m also a Reiki Master and sound practitioner.
For most of my adult life, my work has been centred around pleasure. I built a pleasure business that I ran for 20 years, before closing it in January.
But for the last few years, something else had been growing alongside it.
I was spending more time making art, working with clay in different ways, connecting with my surroundings in more meaningful ways, exploring ritual, sound and Reiki and thinking more deeply about what pleasure actually means to me.
It still matters. A lot.
But I’ve come to see it as something much bigger than s*x alone. It’s about being able to feel more, in all the ways. Being curious. Being connected to yourself, to other people and to the world around you.
That’s the undercurrent running through everything I do now.
Different ways of exploring sensation, connection, creativity and being fully in tune with our bodies.
It feels good to finally be able to share a little more about how my practice has been evolving.
Thanks for being here 🤍

It’s been a year of change and rethinking things in the studio and life in general. I’ll be sharing more soon but I’m feeling ready to open the doors again.
This October, I’m inviting people into the studio for two small clay gatherings, each with a different way into making.
VOTIVES · 18 October
A Samhain ritual in clay
An intimate seasonal workshop centred around making, texture and intention. We’ll gather over tea, create a collective altar, then bring an intention into the clay, making a votive object using simple hand-building techniques, natural textures and found forms.
PLAY WITH CLAY · 20 October
A relaxed evening of making and experimenting with clay. There’s no set project and no experience needed. I’ll show you some simple hand-building techniques, then you can follow your own ideas and see where the material takes you.
Both workshops are small and intimate, held in my studio in London E10.
VOTIVES
£70 early bird · £75 regular · £135 for two
PLAY WITH CLAY
£40 early bird · £45 regular · £80 for two
Early bird pricing is available until 5 October.
Bookings are open via the link in my bio. Looking forward to seeing some of you in person soon 🍂☕️
The thing I’m most grateful for are the connections I’ve made along the way: the laughter, the friendships, the workshops, the honest and intimate conversations, and the trust you’ve placed in me and my work.
🥀The store closes Thursday 15 January, and my final workshop (17 January) is fully booked.
📣 I’ve had a few requests for an extra date. If there’s enough interest, I may host one final workshop on 18 January.
❣️DM me if you’d like to attend this additional workshop date on the 18th 🤍
💌I’d love to stay in touch join my Substack & newsletter.
Real talk: running this business has been an amazing journey, but the last few years have been increasingly challenging, and it’s taken a toll on my physical, mental, and emotional health.
Closing feels like the right choice, as heartbreaking as it is.
The store closes Thursday 15 January, and my final workshop on 17 January is now sold out.
I’ve had a few requests for an extra date - if enough people are interested, I might host one on 18 January. Please message me if you would like the chance to attend. If I do, there will be 6 places. First come, first served.

I’ve been holding this in for a while… closing my pleasure tool business has been one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever had to make. In this reel I share why it’s been so difficult. The store closes in 8 days on Thursday 15 January. My final workshop will be Saturday 17 January. I’d love to stay connected. Sign up to my newsletter and substack to follow my next chapter

Thank you so much to everyone who has followed, supported, shared, loved (and made lobe) with my work.
I’ll share more later on the reasons why this chapter has come to a close. For now, you can find my last remaining pieces online at final sale prices and join me at my final farewell d***o decorating workshop on the 17th January (links in bio).
Massive love to all of you xx
