Hand thrown in smooth white porcelain and finished with softly scalloped rim, this verssatile bowl is one of those pieces you’ll find yourself reaching for again and again. There’s something deeply comforting about the way it sits in the hand - light, perfectly smooth, and quietly elegant.

The chalky matt white glaze brings a subtle warmth to the porcelain, and it feels just as at home filled with breakfast porridge as it is serving something simple and restorative at suppertime. I’ve been testing these in my own kitchen for the past few months, and they’ve become one of those “use every day” favourites.

A beautiful standalone piece for serving something special on your table for a gathering, and a natural addition to your Paper Thin Moon tableware collection.

Rooted in tradition but made for modern living, this large stoneware harvest jug is a one-of-a-kind piece that will bring a bold statement to your home. Hand-thrown in our East Sussex studio, it’s shaped with a generous belly and single curved handle.

The high-pour spout and rounded form are nods to centuries-old English harvest jugs, of which hundreds were produced by Fishley Holland potters over the generations.

Then harvest jugs were traditionally used to carry cider or ale. Today, this handsome vessel is perfect for large, unstructured floral arrangements, wild branches, or simply as a focal point on a sideboard or table.

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.

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.

They’re easy to grow, too and can been sown straight into beds and borders.

I use these super versatile hand thrown bowls on a daily basis, and have done since they first came back from the workshop a year or so ago. The first thing I want to do when I see a a great new bowl or plate design come out of the kiln is pick it up and see how it feels - and these smooth, porcelain pieces feel so comforting and reassuring in the hand.

Their subtly speckled glaze give them a beautiful warmth, making them perfect for your breakfast granola and a warming bowl of soup for lunch, but they also make an elegant addition to the dinner table come evening.

Mix with some of our Oxnam twice-fired ceramic plates and bowls or pair it with the rest of our Harvest range, which includes matching dinner and side plates.

Many of these tiny porcelain vases have been inspired by the shapes seen in classical Japanese pottery but they also follow a long tradition of miniature making in the family pottery.

Miniatures were first produced in the Braunton Pottery by William Fishley Holland in the mid-1900s.

These one-of-a-kind modern collections look great on their own but are equally striking as part of a curated display on your shelf or sideboard. Each collection of five vases is unique and will not be repeated.

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!
