Grahame Clarke

These porcelain pieces by Grahame Clarke are just the kind of thing I love. You can order this hare bowl and pheasant jug directly from his studio. Pictures: Grahame Clarke.

Bell Pottery

Bell Pottery was run by Jonathan and Sue Atkinson, until Sue sadly died a few years ago. Now their daughter Jane runs the company, decorating their beautiful plates, cups and bowls by hand with designs inspired by William de Morgan tiles. I love their mugs, particularly; no two designs are the same. Buy directly from their pottery in Chipping Norton, or see their stockists list here. Picture: Bell Pottery.

Helkatdesign

Wiltshire girls Helen and Hollie make these lovely cushions featuring horses, chickens, pigs and dancing hares - which are screen-printed and then individually sewn over. Each one is unique. Buy them online at Folksy and Etsy. Pictures: Helkatdesign.
