The Summer Edit
Don’t you just love coming home to a room filled with the faintly lingering scent of natural incense? Burning incense as part of your daily ritual is made all the more joyful with our gorgeous new handmade ceramic incense holder.
Thrown in white porcelain, the Flora has a delicate scalloped edge and is glazed in smooth coral. Three different sizes of holes in the dome means it’s perfect for any width of incense stick.
It’s an elegant little object, and fits like a tiny floral dream on mantelpieces, storage cupboards, shelves. I keep mine on display, nestled amongst vintage brass candlesticks, picture frames and bowls of flowers.
Burning incense is know to aid meditation and relaxation, and even improve focus. I like to light some in the morning and have it burning on my desk as I’m working.

Named after the Scottish location for the Fishley Holland Pottery in the 1970s and ‘80s, the Oxnam bowl is part of a new range of beautiful, functional tableware.
Designed for those who delight in the tactile nature of handmade pottery, this porcelain bowl goes through five different processes once it’s been thrown and turned. Before being fired, it’s dipped in oatmeal glaze. Once fired it’s then brushed with white glaze. When the glaze is dry, the linear pattern is incised on the interior and exterior before it’s fired one more time.
An elegant addition to a calming and peaceful breakfast table, its subtle, natural glazing mean the throwing rings are still visible in the base. The perfect size for breakfast porridge or a comforting bowl of lunchtime soup, it feels beautiful in the hand, too.
Turned with a small foot, making it light and functional - the base is unglazed and features our unique Fishley Holland maker’s stamp.
Mix with some of our other ceramic plates and bowls or pair it with the rest of our Oxnam range. A matching side plate and dinner plate are also available to pre-order.
