Hello and welcome to my pottery site. My name is Helen, and I specialize in wheel-thrown ceramics which I make in the Eden Valley not far from my favourite lake – Ullswater.
If you’d like to see what I’m up to pottery-wise (and also swimming-wise!) you can find me on Instagram @ullswaterceramics and on Twitter @Ullswaterceram. This site – and the online shop – only has a small selection of the items that I do and is, I confess, not updated as frequently as I’d like.
If anything catches your eye, or your have an idea for a commission, please get in touch by email at info@ullswaterceramics.com or via social media.
Where to find me
A selection of my work is on show at the studio gallery of Interlude Ceramics, Brougham Hall, Penrith. You can find me working in the studio at Brougham Hall on most Fridays.
My Mull-inspired work is now in stock at the gorgeous Calgary Art Gallary, Calgary (near Dervaig) on the Isle of Mull. I’m so excited to bring my work there, as the gallery is only a few miles from Langamull, which is a really special place that has inspired a lot of my work.
A selection of my Copper Green range, including vases and yarn bowls, is available at the Appleby Hub, Chapel Street, CA16 6QR.
My swimming mugs are in stock at the Ullswater Swim Place, Another Place, Watermillock, Ullswater CA11 0LP.
My yarn bowls can be found at The WoolClip, Caldbeck near Carlisle.
