We were delighted to sit down with the Enki Magazine recently and talk to them about what led us to go into business together, how we experiment with form and texture, and how we support conscious shopping and minimal waste. We also talk about what Christmas means to us, and which of our ceramics make beautiful gifts for the festive season.

We’ve also listed all of the pieces mentioned in our interview below. Enjoy!

As sisters, what inspired you to set up your business together?

Abby: It all happened quite gradually, we initially just wanted to explore different creative outlets in our free time and spend quality time together.

We were both working in the interiors industry: Hannah was making the most beautiful ceramics for a kitchen company, and I was working in marketing for a luxury fabric and wallcovering company as a graphic designer. It was such a big decision for us both to leave our industries, but with Hannah’s skills in ceramics and mine in design, we realised that by taking the leap we’d both have our dream jobs!

Hannah: We’re lucky that we’ve grown up around creativity. We’d practice watercolour painting with our grandmother at the weekends; our mum did pottery at art school before becoming a teacher, and our dad is an architect, which really brought that sense of functionality to our creative outlets. Being an architect means you consider how people use and flow through a space, and this consideration really sticks with us when it comes to designing our own products.
