“There is nothing online like this.
Having a ceramic business is so much more than throwing a bowl. I’m so glad someone is finally telling it how is....”

COLLECTIONS
Bespoke collaborations include
a raw complexion
“Find out what makes you kinder, what opens you up and brings out the most loving, generous and unafraid version of you - and go after those things as if nothing else matters. Because, actually, nothing else does.” George Sanders
We find ourselves craving the rawness of the natural, the simplicity of fragility and openness. Buffed back to expose their gritty textures, these clays are raw and tactile, while honouring the soft feminine curves that imbue every one of our pieces.

“…an antidote to our feelings of separation and distance in a post-COVID world… (THE QUARRY IS) a case-study in intimacy, connection and rawness. Boisselet celebrates the things we missed; sharing a meal, holding hands and hugging each other tight.”

NOTHIN' BUT A HEARTACHE
In the month universally dedicated to love, this collection is inspired by its ruthless aftermath - heartbreak. To the thousands of ships launched in its bitter causatum, to the billions of songs written in its wake. To the moments of devastating aching that remind us what it is to feel, remind us to appreciate the joys that now seem so far away. “Without pain, would we ever feel rapture? Without our own stories to project on them, would all the songs and art that moves us so even matter at all?” asked Jess Blanch.

SHUCK ME
ARE OYSTERS THE ULTIMATE APHRODISIAC OR IS IT ALL IN OUR MINDS?
“Oysters inhabited this earth long before us, they’ve been privy to all our histories unfold. Evolutions, Revolutions, Ages and Empires have risen and fallen around their unassuming shells. When Anthony Bourdain told us, ‘The history of the world is on your plate,’ no food captures this like the humble oyster. Their reach stretches coastlines, anecdotes and plates across time and geography. And yet, through it all, in direct contrast to growing tired of a long-term companion, they’ve emerged as our ultimate lovers; synonymous with aphrodisiacs and romance and sex. Why do they occupy such a place in our hearts, minds, plates and bedrooms..?"

THE NIGHT BELONGS TO LOVERS
Bjork said it best, “The more digital we have, the more naked skin and rawness we will want.” Inspired by Patti Smiths’ 1978 song ‘Because the night’, this collection is a celebration of the objects that fuel our desire. Every piece is made by hand, because human touch is our most primitive craving. Because the night belongs to us.
