Testimonial

My name is Joy and I am the Homes editor for Saga (Saga publishes for the affluent 55+ market and currently has the highest circulated magazine in the UK).

I popped into the Contemporary Ceramics Gallery last week and I fell in love with your pots – I am about to publish a feature on makers and spring flowers. Attached is one example of an image of your pots I captured.
