Our ceramic Smokies are made here in Arbroath. Slip cast using a mould created from a pair of Smokies - a smoked fish protected under PGI Protected Geographical Index, a technique passed down generations.

We use special stoneware glazes to capture the texture and depth of this story, making beautiful cultural celebrations!

Smokies are available for purchase from but if you’re further a field, drop us a message 🧡

Hello and welcome to our page. We have lots of content on our Instagram, but felt it would be beneficial to have both social media’s.

We create ceramic pieces, homeware functional ware and sculptural art.
We take inspiration from our surroundings, gorgeous Angus coastal walks and mixing glazes to create unique blends.

This past year we have worked hard on our Ceramic Smokies which can be seen along the Arbroath Cliff Trail.

We have been on maternity leave and will be slowly returning to making.

Thanks for having a looksie!
Any questions or queries, please drop us a message.
