I grew up visiting my grandparents in Ballyporeen, Co. Tipperary, where fuchsia tumbled over the front wall all summer long. That bright red, bell-shaped flower is such a fond memory. The Irish name for it is Deora Dé, God's tears, and that combination of wildness and warmth felt like the natural heart of this piece.
Fuchsia blooms wind around the stoneware vase, painted in vivid red and purple underglaze and finished with a glossy transparent glaze, with my hidden ladybird tucked somewhere among them.

The Irish called it cailleach dhearg, the Red Hag, and once named it the Witches Flower for its habit of appearing where it had no right to be, pushing through cracks in stone, blazing from the edges of fields, refusing to be tamed. This handbuilt stoneware vase captures that spirit. Bold red hand-formed poppies and butterflies, in vivid underglaze colours, wind around the square vase under a glossy transparent glaze, with my signature ladybird tucked somewhere amongst the blooms.

This handbuilt stoneware vase brings this elegance to life in three dimensional hand-formed blooms, each one painted with a pale yellow edge and deep blue spadix, with butterflies adding movement across the surface. My signature hidden ladybird is tucked somewhere among the flowers, waiting to be found.

The Bloody Cranesbill has one of the most memorable names in Irish botany, and one of the most vivid flowers to match. That shock of deep magenta pink, flowering from the limestone cracks of the Burren each summer, is the kind of colour that stops you in your tracks.
This handbuilt stoneware vase brings it indoors, into your home. Hand-formed blooms in a delicate pink underglaze, scattered across the square form and finished with a glossy transparent glaze. My hidden ladybird is tucked somewhere among them, waiting to be found.

Some of the best things start small. I have fond memories of sitting in the garden as a child, threading daisies into chains, and that same quiet delight is what I want you to feel when you look at this vase.
Daisy blooms scatter across the stoneware surface of this vase, each one slightly different, finished under a glossy transparent glaze with a hidden ladybird nestled somewhere among them.
Part of the Burren Collection - inspired by the limestone landscape of Co. Clare, where wildflowers push through the rock in defiance of everything.

The Spring Gentian is the Burren's most iconic wildflower, that intense, electric blue appearing against bare limestone in May, as if the rock itself decided to bloom. It's found almost nowhere else in Ireland, which makes it the perfect emblem for this collection.
This handbuilt stoneware vase brings that electric blue indoors, hand-formed Gentian blooms scattered across the surface, each one painted in vivid blue underglaze and finished with a glossy transparent glaze. My signature ladybird is hidden somewhere among them.

There is something about yellow in the Irish summer, buttercups taking over the garden, dandelions pushing through every gap, and Golden Samphire catching the light against the limestone of the Burren. It is the colour of long evenings and warm afternoons when the Irish hedgerows and meadows are fully alive.
This handbuilt stoneware vase captures that brightness, hand-formed blooms in vivid yellow underglaze scattered across the stoneware surface, finished with a glossy transparent glaze. My signature ladybird is tucked somewhere among them.

There is something about putting a living plant into a handmade pot that changes both of them. The pot stops being an object and becomes part of something growing, and the plant finds a home that feels like it was always meant for it.
This pot is inspired by the fuchsia, the Deora Dé, God's tears, that wild, bell-shaped flower that tumbles over every wall and gate in the Irish countryside all summer long. I grew up with it spilling over my grandparents' garden in Ballyporeen, Co. Tipperary, and that vivid red and purple has never left me. Hand-sculpted fuchsia blooms and butterflies wind around the organic square form, painted in rich underglaze and finished with a glossy transparent glaze. My signature hidden ladybird is tucked somewhere among them.
These are designed as cache pots — no drainage hole, no saucer needed. Simply pop your plant inside in its nursery pot. It keeps things mess-free and means you can swap plants in and out as the seasons change.

These oval wall plaques are a little piece of Creative Clay history. When I first started making ceramic wall pieces, ovals were my signature shape.
A recent order from one of my stockists in Killarney brought me back to them, and I have some left over that are available now in Fuchsia, Poppy and Lily.
Each plaque is hand-rolled from stoneware clay, giving it a gentle, organic warp, painted in underglaze colours and finished with a glossy transparent glaze. My hidden ladybird is tucked somewhere among the blooms as always.
These are ready to ship — no waiting around. When they're gone, they're gone.

​The Undiscovered Self: An Invitation to Inwardness.
​These pieces began with a question I've been sitting with for a long time — what lives underneath? Underneath the roles we play, the stories we tell ourselves, the surface we show the world.
Each piece in this collection is hand-rolled from a slab of stoneware clay, deeply etched and layered with underglaze colour, wildflowers pushing through darkness, roots holding in difficult ground. The titles came from the same place the work did: Becoming. Brave New World. Learning to Shine. Out of the Shadows. Vulnerability Rising. Between Knowing and Becoming. Emerging from the Shadows.
Every piece is one of a kind, mounted and framed in a simple white box frame, ready to hang. Made by hand in Sixmilebridge, Co. Clare.
Small framed: 25cm x 30cm · Large framed: 30.5cm x 40.5cm.
These pieces belong to a collection inspired by the 'Inner Wilds' of the subconscious. To learn more about the philosophy behind the work—from Carl Jung to the modern perspectives of Peter Crone—read the full story here: Revisiting a College Truth.

Fuchsia blooms and butterflies wind around the stoneware, painted in vivid red and purple underglaze and finished with a glossy transparent glaze, with my hidden ladybird tucked somewhere among them.
There is something quiet lovely about how the glow of the flame catches the flowers and lights them up. The wide, round base makes it safe for tealights or small pillar candles, any wax that collects in the base lifts out easily once cooled.

Bold red poppies and butterflies, painted in vivid underglaze, wind around the surface and finish with a glossy transparent glaze, and my hidden ladybird somewhere among the blooms.
As the candle burns, the light plays across the flowers, the red deepens, and the butterflies seem almost to move. The wide, round base makes it safe for tealights or small pillar candles; wax collects in the base and lifts out cleanly once cooled.
