Briglin Pottery was founded in 1948 in London’s West End by Brigitte Goldschmidt and Eileen Lewenstein.

They produced a variety of handmade & decorated pottery items such as vases, lamp bases, money boxes and tableware.

The pottery has characteristic subtle, natural tones – oatmeal, terracotta & chocolate.

A wax resist technique was often used in the glazing process, producing a wonderfully tactile result – alternating coarse and smooth surfaces.

We really love the recurring daisy / sunflower motif – also the leaves on stem and striped designs.

We’re currently fighting over this wonderful big striped mug. To keep the peace, the deal is – if you make the brew, you get the mug!!

If we’ve spiked your interest you’ll find a lot more information on the Briglin Pottery and Pottery Studio websites. There’s also a book on the subject available on our Amazon a-store
