Prehistoric-style Pottery

Clay has been worked by people since the time of our ancestors in pre-history. They used pottery items in both their everyday lives and for use in ritual. All our items have been crafted with hand-dug clay from ancient Wessex and created using the time-honoured techniques of the ancient people of the land. Each item is completely hand-made from start to finish and is fired in the traditional way.

The Prehistoric-style pottery items featured on these pages are carefully copied replicas of archaeological finds in the ancient Wessex area of Britain. We offer a range of pottery from elaborate beakers to incense cups.

The finished items sometimes have minor flaws, such as small hairline cracks, and colour mottling - this is perfectly normal and is due to the ancient techniques used in crafting. This is all part of the character of the item and doesn't effect the use in any way.
