Small batch handmade ceramics by our favourite British potters — wheel thrown, pinch pottery and moulded shapes. We have the best handmade mugs for morning coffee, generous stoneware tea cups, bowls, plates and serveware for every occasion. It's a mix of contemporary and traditional shapes and glazes, all made using classical pottery techniques that have passed the test of time, so whether you're after a hand-thrown mug for everyday use or a statement serving piece, this is the place to look for genuinely artisan ceramics rather than mass-produced tableware.
Pip Hartle's stoneware mugs, bowls and candlesticks sit alongside Liz Vidal's dipped-glaze mugs, jugs, oil pourers and incense holders, Tim Lake's faceted vases and plant pots, and Annabel Roberts' hand-painted bowls, plates and utensil pots — four of our most-loved independent potters, each working in a distinct style but sharing the same commitment to small-batch, handcrafted production. Brickett Davda's colourful glazed mugs and bowls, and Wildwood Ceramic Studio's textured stoneware, round out our range of handmade ceramic mugs and homeware.
This collection is also where we'd point anyone hunting for thoughtful wedding gifts. A ceramic oil pourer, a set of Leach Pottery nesting bowls, or a ceramic butter dish are the kind of considered, one-off pieces that suit a couple setting up a new kitchen — genuinely different from anything on a standard wedding list, and a good option for people who already have it all. Because each piece is small-batch or one-off, no two gifts are ever quite the same.
From our local studios in Falmouth, Cornwall, we also stock decorative terracotta platters by Eloise Rose and functional stoneware by Leach Pottery and Henry Bird. Every piece is individually thrown or hand-built, so no two mugs, bowls or plates are ever quite identical — the small variations in glaze and shape are part of what makes handmade ceramics worth choosing over factory-made alternatives.
