The problem with being a potter? Too many ideas… and not enough shelf space. Over the years, I’ve made (and kept!) so many pieces I’ve loved - but with kitchen shelves groaning and space running out, I’ve decided it’s time to (grudgingly) part with a small selection from my personal collection.
 
These are pre-loved, gently used, and full of character - and they’re all being offered at a discounted price to reflect that.
 
A few years ago, I went through a phase of making these decorative hanging ladies - and I absolutely loved them.
I even had an all-white one (of course) hanging in our bathroom as a light cord pull for a while! These two were made during that time and have been hanging in my cabin over the kilns ever since. They never made it onto the website - mostly because they’re a bit of a departure from my usual makes.
 
I think they’d look lovely hanging on a wall, in a doorway, or nestled in a Christmas tree when the season arrives. Basically, they’re as cute as a button (even if I do say so myself!).
 
Hanging lady with legs: 16cm tall (13cm without legs), 6cm wide – £14
Hanging lady without legs (!): 14cm tall (including loop), 9cm wide – £10
 
Prices reflect their preloved nature.
 
 
Caring for your pottery:
Marigold and Lettice pottery is made from white earthenware clay and designed to be used and enjoyed every day. We personally use our pieces in the oven, dishwasher, and microwave. However, to prolong the life of your pottery, handwashing is the gentler choice, as dishwashers can be tough on handmade items due to high-pressure jets and strong detergents and may overtime cause damage and speed up any grazing in the glaze. 
While we do microwave our own pieces, for longevity we suggest heating food in the oven where possible.

Our china looks and feels very (very) different to mass-produced pottery; it’s not fine or delicate, but wonderfully chunky and full of texture, you’ll see thumb prints, makers marks, glaze specks/drips and heaps of individuality. We call it perfectly imperfect pottery and firmly believe it’s all the better for it!
