Uig Pottery

Distinctive pottery with five main decorations inspired by the local land and seascape. Each pot is unique although sets can be decorated as similarly as possible. Our Celtic range includes a Quaich, a traditional Scottish drinking cup, the origins of which lie deep in the history of Scotland. All our pots have function as well as style and make suitable gifts and mementos.

Adrian Hope

I like my work to be, for want of a better word, friendly. The reason for using silver at all is because it is a wonderful, forgiving, pliable material that I can manipulate with complete sympathy. I want the owners and users of my work to enjoy it , so it has to be direct and approachable and tactile.

Alisdair McKay (Creative Woodworker)

Cutting the wood into thin slices, often across the grain reveals the maximum richness, I construct forms where the resultant sequence, is the focus in sculpture, featured in boxes and vessels or a detail in furniture. With an allusion to movement or softness I juxtaposition textures, colour and form, introducing with other joining materials the illusion of precariousness or tenuousness. / I work functionally and creatively, speculatively and to commission, for private or commercial clients and galleries from the workshop which I established in 1984.
