Hello, I’m Emma!  Thanks for visiting my site and taking an interest in the person behind the pots.

I make functional ceramics, each piece made by hand on the potter’s wheel.  Bold designs and bright colours fill me with happiness and I try to imbue each of my pots with that joy.

I work mainly in white stoneware clay, which brings out bright colours beautifully.  I aim to create shapes and forms which look good and feel great to use, making your day a little bit nicer.

I take a lot of inspiration from tattoo art and iconography, and I am heavily tattooed myself.  (Fun Fact: I once appeared on the cover of a tattoo magazine!)

I have been working with clay since I was 16 years old, when I took A Level Ceramics as an evening class.  Ceramics took a back seat whilst I was at university, but as soon as I was settled in a job after graduation I found an evening class and got clay under my fingernails again.  During this time, I focused on sculpture and hand-building large figurative pieces.  

For several years, I would take a term of classes where location and work patterns allowed.  It was during one of these classes that I was introduced to throwing and my passion for making beautiful, functional ceramic ware began.

I started my studio in 2018 and launched my business in 2019.

I am now based in Bristol, United Kingdom.  I create all my pots in my home studio, throwing and decorating in the conservatory, and glazing and firing in the shed. I am supervised by two cats, Albert and Jürgen.
