Pottery by Lulu
Handmade in Walthamstow, East London
Hi I’m Lulu, and my studio is at the end of my garden.
I’m a small batch potter who loves Japanese pottery and making ceramics designed for chilled evenings spent sharing food and drinks with friends and family.
I’ve just started offering 1:1 pottery wheel classes, alongside making my own pieces.
So if you’re someone who’d rather make their own (like me) - I might be able to help you with that too…
For the table…
Designed for crudités and dip, this platter is the perfect centre piece for snacks at your next dinner party.
Finished in Salt of the Earth (named after a Rolling Stones song) this ivory glaze contains iron spangles giving these tumblers a distinctive speckled finish. It has a satin-matte finish giving it an organic feel.
H 3cm x W 20cm
It is food safe, and can go in the dishwasher (though hand-washing is always advised to avoid breakages) - but it might be best to avoid microwaves and ovens.
Simple minimalist pan trivets to save your dining table from those roasting hot potato trays.
These trivets are small enough to fit as many Christmas sides on the table as you can make, whilst keeping your tablescape nice and minimal.

H 1cm x W 17 cm
As these trivets are handmade in small batches, please note you might not receive the exact product in the image - there could be slight variations in the size or glaze finish. (but that’s the beauty of handmade.)

Introducing: 1:1 pottery wheel classes
I’m opening up my studio to offer 1:1 private wheel throwing classes from February 2026.
Whether you’ve always wanted to give throwing on a wheel a try, or you have a project in mind - a mug for mother’s day perhaps…?! Join me in my cosy studio in Walthamstow to give it a go…

Handmade, black and white marble matchstick holder, with lighting pad beneath. Perfect to pop next to a candle so you never have to scrabble around for a lighter again…
Created by combining two clay bodies. Unglazed with a warm-stone like feel, these are a lovely gift alongside my marble tea light holders,
