Jen creates individually hand-thrown ceramics for home and restaurants, designed to be used for many years to come. Jen makes pieces that hope to blend into the fabric of your day making little moments that bit more enjoyable. Working with a natural material which can endlessly be recycled until fired means she can create and develop ideas freely before deciding on the final pieces helping to reduce waste further along the making process. This is especially the case when designing for restaurants who want something little different.
