These elegantly understated stoneware bowls make a wonderful centrepiece on your dining table, and a beautiful - and useful - addition to your kitchen shelf.

Each bowl is unique. Images will be uploaded as and when new versions become available - that will vary slightly in design and glaze permeations. Turned with a small foot to make them light and versatile, they can be used to serve up salads and side dishes on your dining table

Hand-thrown, these bowls are twice-fired in a process that involves dipping them in oatmeal glaze, firing, then brushing with white glaze and etching the design into the body of the vessel. Once a blue glaze has been added to the rim, the bowl is fired again to achieve this beautiful layered effect.

Fill with fresh figs or use to serve your salad and sides on your dinner table, or as a useful fruit bowl.

An elegant new addition to our range of handmade stoneware and porcelain vessels for flowers and grasses, the Honour vase is made from recycled porcelain clay and has a wonderfully textured, tactile look.

Twice fired, the beautiful fractal effect is achieved when a black glaze is layered with magnesium carbonate. The resulting surface has a wonderfully organic, lustrous look that swirls over the vessel’s curves and is mesmerising to look at.

With its narrow, scalloped neck, the Honour vase is perfect for long, slender stems and dried grasses. I like to fill it with tall, papery dried honesty as a lovely counterpart to the dark, blue-black and ivory pattern.

The perfect gift for those who love nothing more than spending some quiet time faffing with flowers, our new Flower Lover’s Ikebana Gift Set includes everything needed for making artful ikebana-inspired displays with fresh or dried flowers.

Use our Harvest ceramic flower frog, alone or placed inside our Oxnam porcelain bowl, or opt for a small Niwaki kenzan flower pin inside the bowl for more minimal arrangements. Simply fill the ceramic flower frog with water when using fresh flowers.

You’ll also receive a packet of Nigella papillosa “Delft Blue” seeds from the lovely Higgledy Garden. These delicate little beauties (pictured) are named after Delftware pottery and have mottled silvery grey and blue petals, a deep aubergine “bee” and gorgeous feathery foliage. They’re easy to grow, too and can been sown straight into beds and borders.

As a keen gardener and flower lover, I designed this set to delight those who love to grow, cut and get creative with flowers. A really useful and versatile set, it can be used all year round, with dried flowers, grasses and slender branches coming into play in the cooler months.

Our Birdie jug has been updated recently, and is based on a Fishley Holland design produced in the 1980s that was informed by some of Picasso’s bright, painterly ceramics.

The new incarnation is a little more sculptural, has a lovely organic shape and is decorated with a pared back black and white palette. It looks handsome on its own but once flowers or dried grasses are added, they give the effect of giving the “bird” some added plumage!

The perfect table centrepiece, or for using to serve salads and side dishes, this beautiful stoneware bowl goes through a number or processes in its creation.

Once leather-dry it it turned and glazed in our signature speckled oatmeal glaze before being fired. A darker oatmeal glaze is then applied and, once dry, the liner pattern is incised into that glaze. A blue glaze is then used on the rim and to accent the centre after which it is fired a second time.

The effect is beautifully nuanced, creating blurred, soft grey-blue hues.

The result is a unique, tactile piece of stoneware showing the refined craftsmanship of a seventh generation potter - a piece to be treasured that can be used every day.
