The studio

Three workshops, one small shop

The kiln in Hillcrest

Our stoneware is thrown and fired in a garden workshop above the Valley of a Thousand Hills. Each glaze is mixed in buckets of ten litres, so a colour runs out when the bucket does.

The weavers up the coast

Ilala palm is cut, dried and dyed with bark and roots before it is woven. A large basket takes about a week to finish.

The sewing room in Pinetown

We buy flax linen by the roll and send it to a sewing room of three. They stonewash it, cut it and hem every edge by machine, then finish the corners by hand.
