The gallery is owned and run by the artist Nives, who makes the pottery and ceramic pieces on display by hand and shows her own sketch artwork alongside them. The format is a personal studio-gallery rather than a multi-artist commercial space, with the maker present at the counter for the work the visitor is buying.

The pottery line is the recurring item, with the sketch work hung as the secondary line on the walls. Pricing across both lines runs at the modest end for a Montenegrin coast gallery, given the maker-direct model with no agent or markup chain. The address sits in the cluster of independent shops and cafés that runs along the open-air market frontage at Šaljarska Pijaca, a short walk from the Sea Gate of the Old Town walls.
