Our Story ✨🔥

It all started with one spark…

Picture a tiny apartment balcony, the scent of fresh clay in the air, and two night-owl creatives molding miniature mushrooms onto a plain lighter. 🌙🍄 That little “why-not?” experiment lit more than a flame—it ignited a mission: turn everyday objects into art that makes people smile.

From balcony studio to global family

Word spread—first to friends, then strangers, then collectors across oceans. What began as a side hobby grew into iaurora.in an artist-run studio where every lighter, ashtray, and trinket is sculpted, painted, and sealed by hand. No molds. No shortcuts. Just hours of laughter, coffee, and clay under our fingernails. 🎨🖐️

Why we create 🌱

  • Art you can use: We love galleries, but nothing thrills us more than seeing art function—in pockets, on coffee tables, at midnight campfires.

  • Maker first: Each sale funds our expanding circle of freelance sculptors and painters, giving them fair pay and creative freedom. 🤝

  • Built to last: Refillable Clipper cores, tough epoxy clay, and eco-minded packaging mean less waste, more memories. ♻️

Beyond the flame

We host monthly “Open Bench” nights where new artists drop by, sculpt alongside us, and leave with clay under their nails and stars in their eyes. 🌟 We donate a portion of limited-edition drops to mental-health art programs, believing creativity should heal as well as delight.

Where we’re headed 🚀

  • Community collabs: Expect crossovers with tattooists, street artists, and glass blowers you love.

  • Workshops & DIY kits: You asked—we’re answering. Soon you’ll sculpt your own pocket masterpiece at home.

  • Even wilder themes: Mythic beasts, retro toons, cosmic portals… if we can imagine it, we’ll sculpt it.
