A range of gifts printed inhouse by Adrian from my original Paintings. As we print everything ourselves most of the items can be personalised & if we have not got your favourite design on a certain item I am sure we could print one for you just contact us. Our range of Footpath Sign mugs can be personalised with the name of your town or you can have a garden sign with your name on which is a perfect present for any garden lover.

After glaze firing.
Adrian hand casts items from Earthenware slip & they are fired in a kiln to 1140 Degrees C. Jennifer draws a design onto the ceramics with raised slip to give a slighlty raised effect, then paints them using underglaze oxides then also draws a design in the background. Once glazed & fired our ceramics are useable & decorative & they make beautiful gifts as no two pieces are exactly alike. All the handpainted ranges are made to order so please allow from 3 to 4 weeks when ordering the hand painted range.
