✨ Featured Artist Spotlight: Karin Findell Ceramics ✨

We are absolutely thrilled to highlight the wonderful work of local ceramic artist, Karin Findell! 🌿

Working from her studio, Karin creates beautiful, rustic stoneware pottery that is deeply inspired by nature, British wildlife, and organic shapes. What makes her work truly special is her use of the sgraffito technique—hand-carving intricate designs into layered, colored slips to give every mug, bowl, jug, and soap dish a gorgeous tactile finish you’ll love to hold.

Because everything is hand-built and hand-carved, every single piece has its own distinct personality and is completely unique!

🛍️ Want to take a piece home? Karin’s stunning ceramics are available for sale right now at the Gallery in the Gardens inside the beautiful, historic Pavilion Gardens in Buxton. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a stroll through the gardens and shop one-of-a-kind local art.
