SUSTAINABILITY
CERAMICS
The creation of ceramics is not without its environmental cost, this is something that I take in to consideration in every stage of creation of my pieces. The small scale of my production ensures that waste is minimal, clay is recycled in to slip or reclaim wherever possible and small scale firings assist with efficiency.
I use environmentally friendly packaging wherever possible, and each order will have the option to use recycled packaging and boxes to reduce waste wherever practical.
In addition, as a part of my environmental considerations, I am building my own studio using environmentally friendly materials where possible, with the aim to create an efficient long term studio.
Built by hand with help from family and friends, the construction includes the use of locally sourced straw clay blocks for the walls, clay plaster (with the clay sourced from the ground on site) for the internal walls, wood fibre board wall insulation, cork cladding for the external finish, reclaimed roof timbers, windows and doors... the list goes on.
I moved in to the purpose built space in July 2025, it is an ever evolving space, still waiting for some finishing touches, but an absolute joy to create from... watch this space to see some of my newest collections created in this wonderful space.
