The Nyhavn ceramic houses are a joyful tribute to the colourful harbour houses of Copenhagen’s iconic Nyhavn district, designed in Denmark by Ib Laursen. Each house is carefully handmade from ceramic, with charming details and a rustically glazed finish that makes every piece slightly unique. The colourful façades, open windows and tiny doors reflect the cheerful spirit and picturesque character of the original Danish buildings, bringing a touch of cosy Nordic charm into your home.
These ceramic houses are wonderfully versatile. Place a tealight or a delicate string of lights inside and watch how the warm glow shines softly through the windows to create an inviting atmosphere on a windowsill, shelf or sideboard. Without lights they are equally lovely, their joyful colours and handcrafted appeal bringing warmth and personality to your décor.
The Nyhavn series includes a range of colours and playful designs, from houses with bright doors and warm rooftops to whimsical details that hint at flowers or tiny façades full of character. When grouped together they form a cheerful little neighbourhood, reminding you of long summer evenings by the water in Copenhagen and the vibrant energy of one of Denmark’s most beloved areas.
Made from natural ceramic and shaped by hand, these houses celebrate thoughtful design, artisanal craft and the joy of everyday light and colour. Perfect for interior decorations that feel both personal and full of story, the Nyhavn collection fits beautifully with the values of Mayala Home — where pieces are chosen not just for how they look, but for the atmosphere and stories they bring into your space.
