My friend Heidi made the ceramics this year and they are all really beautiful. Heidi is such a perfect fit for us, some of her pots are made from locally dug clay and all are made in tiny batches. Many years ago I was her Birth Doula for her beautiful daughter Grace so it feels like an extra pleasing collaboration. The bowl is a very good size for our granola, soup or pasta and the cups have a little thumb dimple in the side to make them feel extra lovely to hold. They are hand thrown and glazed, making each pair slightly different. We have only 6 of each colour.
The Speckled Set is beautiful, it reminds me of a bird's egg, it's a warm green with chocolate speckles.
The Blue Set carries the colours of Harris within it (on a good day!), 3 tones of blue reminiscent of the sea and wide open sky
The Wild Set is glorious, made from locally dug clay at Heidi's home, it's a warm, rich honey colour, earthy and tactile. I chose it because it reminds me of the wildness of this place
To accompany these treasures I made our Granola which is in a kilner jar so you can use it for marmalade making or storage after and a bag of our delicious Colombian Asorcafe coffee - half the boxes are ground coffee, the other half are beans.
