Please note:
Kiln & Glaze Firing Included
Your 1–2 handcrafted pieces will be carefully bisque and glaze fired to ensure strength and a beautiful, lasting finish.
⏳ Processing Time
Please allow 6–8 weeks for your pottery to be glazed, fired, and ready for collection. We’ll be in touch as soon as it’s out of the kiln and cooled and would appreciate it if you could within 3-4 weeks as we quickly run out of shelf space. After 4 weeks we may have to donate any pieces that have not been collected.
A Note on the Process
Each piece is handled with the utmost care throughout the firing journey. That said, ceramics can be unpredictable — even after nearly 40 years of working with clay, I still lose the occasional piece to the kiln gods. It’s part of the magic (and mystery) of the craft.

With over 30 years of pottery experience, a formal education in Art & Design, and a major in Studio Ceramics, I’ve traversed many creative paths, but clay has always been my true passion. My journey has included hunting, digging, studying, and mastering new skills, with pottery teaching me the virtues of patience and the beauty of imperfection.
From my studio in Fremantle, Western Australia, I create unique pieces that embody emotional authenticity, prioritizing essential beauty over conventional perfection. I am deeply passionate about sharing my love of making through teaching. I aim to provide an authentic experience where students feel comfortable exploring their own creativity. My workshops and private classes cater to all skill levels, inviting you to discover and express yourself in the captivating world of pottery.
