We’re not just a PYOP, we also take commissions for bespoke or personalised ceramic gifts that, treated with care, will last a lifetime. We host birthday parties, hen dos, baby showers and corporate events and run a wide variety of workshops and events throughout the year. And we have a dedicated clay space for throwing, hand building and workshops.
