Angled Cork Planter / Desk Tidy
Angled Cork Planter / Desk Tidy
This is a versatile little design made in fine grain sustainable cork, so of course, it is super lightweight. It has neatly angled sides and a stepped-in foot which gives it a contemporary edge. Little house plants look cute as will your pens and pencils. Use it as you choose.
Notes: water WILL mark the planter giving it a lovely patina (it will not damage the cork). However, if you don’t want the water marks, lift your little plants out and water them in the sink, allowing excess water to drain away before returning it.
Size Exterior: height 10 cm x diameter 9.5 cm / Interior : height 8 cm x diameter 8.5 cm
THESE are the bowls that you have been looking for. Trust me, I have been searching too. From a big bowl of porridge, through to a hearty soup, a warming stew or a decent bowl of pasta - this is it. Made in porcelain, each of these are slip cast and then glossy glazed on the inside and polished to a pebbly smooth finish on the outside. Mix and match the pink and grey if you can’t decide which to choose. The colours work really well together.

Capacity: 30 fl oz / 850 ml

I’ve called it a Tea Cup because ‘Flat White Cup’ sounded a bit pretentious! Basically it’s a really lovely 6oz cup, slipcast in porcelain, with a glossy glazed inside and a pebble-smooth outside. Simple + stylish (in my opinion) = an excellent combination. Now you have to choose, Charcoal Grey or Soft Pink, or you could always mix and match. The colours work beautifully together.

These versatile water jugs are simple, of course, but definitely not plain. Available in 'sherbet lemon' and 'candy floss pink' they add a sweetness to your kitchen table. And of course, flowers look great in them too.
Colour: Stoneware jug in 'candy floss' pink.

Notes: wash carefully by hand.
An absolutely perfectly sized serving dish for whatever you want to take centre-stage on the table. Hand-thrown in Sheffield in flecked stoneware and then glazed in a cheerful olive glaze. No two will be the same as they are all made by hand and the glaze on each bowl dribbles and gathers into one-off places. The foot-ring remains unglazed and stamped with the makers mark.
Also available in White and Charcoal
Colour: Olive
Size: height 6cm x diameter 27.5cm
Notes: Hand washing will extend the life of your handmade ceramics.

Raise your baking game. Literally. This is the most elegant cake stand I’ve found, and WOW! it makes a cake look incredible. It is made using elegant fine bone china (which, despite its deceptively fragile appearance, is actually the toughest ceramic). It has a wonderfully wobbly edge which is hand painted in cobalt blue. It comes boxed too so makes an excellent gift for a master baker but also means it can be safely stored in between bakes. (…proper pictures coming very soon, with cake, for now these snaps hopefully give an indication of the beautiful form.)
Notes: Fine Bone China with a cobalt blue rim
