"Handmade Ceramics for Everyday Living”

Handmade by Thomas

Thoughtfully crafted pieces made in small batches, designed to be used, loved, and lived with.

Welcome

Handmade by Thomas is a small independent studio owned by husband and wife team, Thomas and Louise at their 18th century country cottage in the heart of the village of Farndon in Cheshire, UK. Thomas is an artist with over 40 years experience in art, design, music and horticulture. Thomas has always been drawn to natural materials, organic forms, and the quiet beauty of handmade objects.

Thomas focuses on pieces that are both handmade, functional and designed to be used, touched, and appreciated over time.

Each item Thomas creates is inspired by the landscape around where they live on the border of England and Wales; the textures of the landscape, the changing seasons, the subtle details often overlooked.

Living in Farndon, surrounded by nature and history, deeply influences the way Thomas approaches his craft. Thomas works slowly and intentionally, allowing each piece to take shape at its own pace.

"Whether you're collecting, gifting, or simply looking for something made with care, we hope our work brings a little bit of that natural, grounded beauty into your space. Our ceramics are unique and individually handmade, no piece is exactly the same".

Thank you for visiting.

SHOP THE COLLECTION

Still thinking about it?

Our pieces are made in small batches and often don't return once sold out.



Every piece starts the same way — with clay, time, and intention. We make everything in small batches, focusing on simplicity, texture, and form. It means slower production, but pieces that feel made — not manufactured.


Made in Small Batches. We make limited runs from our studio, allowing us to focus on quality over quantity. When a piece sells out, it may not return for some time — or at all.
