Spring brings a natural shift towards lighter interiors, relaxed hosting and thoughtfully layered tablescapes.
At Derwent House in Witney, Oxfordshire, we showcase handmade British ceramics by Village Pottery, a collection designed for modern country living and everyday gatherings. Each piece is wheel-thrown and glazed in the UK, with softly speckled finishes and organic forms that sit beautifully within Cotswold homes, farmhouse kitchens and contemporary rustic interiors.
From serving bowls and dinner plates to mugs, jugs and teapots, these artisan ceramics are made to be used. Perfect for spring table styling, weekend lunches, Easter hosting and informal family suppers.
Alongside the signature neutral glaze, are our favourite seasonal tones including Eucalyptus (a soft, spring green) and Raspberry (a muted, warm red). Layer colour into your spring tablescape whilst keeping a calm, natural palette.
