In this world dominated by mass produced items, it is refreshing and exciting to own a piece of hand crafted art, knowing that it is uniquely yours. Penny is driven by a desire to spread her work far and wide, hence items are affordably priced.

Penny is a ceramic artist, having studied at the world renowned Falmouth College of Arts in Cornwall, UK. The Cornish coast is a strong source of inspiration for Penny, many of her pieces recreate the sea; the fishing boats, harbours and cottages precariously perched on the cliff tops where she grew up.

Now living in Surrey, UK. Penny founded PennyPottery and sells via local galleries in Surrey and Cornwall and now for the first time on Etsy. All artwork is hand-built and finished in its entirety by Penny alone. All designs are completely unique, one of a kind and produced in low volume. Items are hand stamped with her logo. Nothing is created from molds or templates as such it is normal to see small imperfections in the finish. The artworks are crafted with high quality clay and glazes and fired in the artists own kiln in a workshop at the bottom of her garden. Energy is sourced from a renewable provider.
