Potterswork
Potterswork has become the heart of Slow Squirrel. Every piece is made by hand in South Africa, so no two are ever quite the same, each carrying its own quiet character and charm.
I have chosen Potterswork as the hero of Slow Squirrel because it perfectly captures everything I want this little business to stand for. Beautiful things that are made to be used every day. Bowls filled with olives for unexpected visitors, generous platters passed around a busy table, favourite mugs wrapped around morning coffee, and pieces that quietly become part of family life for years to come.
I hope you will enjoy collecting them as much as I have enjoyed choosing every colour and shape for you. Mix them, match them, use them often, and most importantly, gather the people you love around them.
Love,
Annabel xx
