Mugs made by hand
We are a small, family-run pottery studio based in Cornwall, just a stone's throw from the sea and moors. Each of our mugs is made by hand using St Agnes clay, a local material that gives every piece its own unique character. Our mugs are wheel-thrown, meaning no two are exactly alike, with subtle variations in glaze and finish that make each one special.
Designed for Everyday Use.
We’ve been making pottery for over 50 years and take pride in creating mugs that are not only beautiful but also practical. The hand-mixed glazes reflect the natural beauty of Cornwall’s coast and countryside, while the ergonomic handles and sturdy design make them comfortable for daily use. Our mugs are microwave and dishwasher safe, made to last for years of morning coffees and evening teas.
What Makes Our Mugs Unique?
Handmade – Each mug is crafted with care in our small family run studio.
Sustainable – We use locally sourced materials.
No Two Are Alike – Every mug has its own character.

Inspired by Cornwall
Our designs are inspired by the colours of the Cornish landscape—the soft blues of the sea, the earthy tones of the moors. Each mug brings a little piece of Cornwall into your home.
