Commissions at Wild Gorse Pottery
Welcome to the design guide for commissions at Wild Gorse Pottery. Below you’ll find a gallery of our available glazes. This is a starting point to discuss your ideas and create a beautiful collection together. Pieces are listed and photographed (where available) from smallest to largest and each item is available in any of our eight glazes.
Think of these items as a starting point and If you wish to order something which is not listed or design something together we can talk through your ideas as the next stage.
Glazes
Our glazes are developed and mixed from scratch in the pottery and have been formulated to be durable, food-safe and vegan.
(some glaze recipes contain bone ash as a source of calcium phosphate, we use a vegan alternative)

Spoon Rests
Dimensions: 12cm x 3cm
Though you may not need one for each place setting, a spoon rest is great to have when serving from larger dishes or sharing plates.
The curved sides will hold most serving utensils securely and the lowered lip means the handle can rest on the table without tipping up.
Price
£18
Small Pourers
These are the smallest jugs I make and are great if you just want to offer salad dressing, whiskey water or milk for tea.
Price
£12
Dimple Cups
These ergonomically designed cups are wonderful in the hand. Their understated design means they sit well with any combination of table ware.
Equally suitable for both hot and cold drinks, these will have you covered for wine and G&T’s as much as green tea with your noodles, or a mulled wine after Christmas dinner.
Price
£22
Dimple Jug
Sauces, gravy, salad dressings; this medium sized jug makes them all look great.
The ergonomic dimples either side make gripping the sides easy and the hand-formed spout is designed with a bevelled edge to prevent drips.
Price
£25
Lidded Jars
Great for serving sauces, condiments or seasoning. Available either with or without a small crescent in the lid for a spoon.
£18 10cm x 8cm
£20 10cm x 10cm
£25 10cm x 13cm
£30 10cm x 15cm
Bowls
These bowls are useful for everything from cereal to salad, dessert to dipping sauces. They come in four sizes and can be customised for specific dishes, such as making them deeper for ramen etc.

£15 - Side bowl
£25 - Morning Bowl
£35 - Ramen Bowl
Plates
Dimensions:
30cm x 4cm
Every dinner set’s staple. Our plates are made with a raised side and a subtle rim. This design makes for easy carrying when hot, and keeps sauces from spilling. The narrow rim is a subtle feature that draws the eye to the food presented, making a frame for your beautiful plating.
Price
£20 Side Plate approx 15cm diameter
£30 Dinner Plate approx 20cm diameter
Serving Bowls
Originally designed as fruit bowls, these are often requested as part of a dinner service because they are so useful for serving salad or bread with a meal.
Similar to the serving platters, they can come in a variety of styles and there are a few options if you wish to tweak the designs.
Price
£65

These come in a variety of styles.
Price range
£55 - £95
