Stoneware · Seaweed ash · Beach clay
Made by hand, coloured by the shore
Tidewrack Ceramics is a two-person pottery studio on the harbour front in Falmouth, Cornwall. We make small-batch stoneware tableware, coloured with glazes made from locally gathered seaweed ash and beach clay. Every piece carries a little of the coast it came from.

I · The glazes
Colours gathered, not bought
“No two firings look quite the same.”
Our glaze colours come from seaweed ash and beach clay gathered locally around Falmouth. Because the materials come from the shore, the colours carry the character of the place and vary from batch to batch.
It is slow, hands-on work, and it is why no two firings look quite the same.

How pre-orders work
Made in rhythm, not in a rush
We work on a rolling 6-week production cycle and take pre-orders for each run. Your pieces are made, glazed and fired in small batches rather than pulled from a warehouse shelf. It means a wait, and it means your set was made for you.
