Glosters Pottery Mustard Yellow Sandcastle Mug - Locally Handmade Stoneware Ceramics

This handmade glazed Sandcastle Mug by Glosters Pottery conjures images of the sunny seaside surrounding us here in Porthmadog, with a playful twist! Beautiful and versatile, these mugs are great for serving summer cocktails, as well as your morning panad (cuppa)! This mug measures just slightly smaller than the Glosters standard mugs. 

Handcrafted just a stone’s throw away from Babipur Towers, the Glosters Mug is a testament to craftsmanship and attention to detail. Tom and the small Glosters team use clay sourced from Stoke on Trent to carefully craft each individual mug, making every one a unique piece of local Welsh art! 

This mug is made from durable stoneware clay, and is food, dishwasher, and microwave safe. 

A Glosters Mug would make a luxurious and thoughtful gift for pottery lovers, perfect for birthdays, housewarmings, Christmas, and any special occasion.

Glosters Pottery was founded by wife and husband duo, Myfanwy and Tom Gloster, and is a manifestation of their creativity and passion for designer pottery. Known in Porthmadog for their eccentric and beautiful seasonal window displays, the couple take inspiration from their gorgeous seaside surroundings to create their unique ceramics. As a photographer, blogger, and business co-owner, Myfanwy has succeeded in gaining a cult following of mug and pottery lovers, both locally and beyond. 

Tom started out as a potter in 2004 after studying Applied Arts at the University of Derby. Today Tom is a well established and renowned potter, well known throughout Wales and beyond. Glosters are known for their contemporary range of kitchenware and pots, they regularly receive commissions from restaurants and even TV chefs! Each item of Tom's pottery is made by him completely by hand, it starts its life as a lump of clay on his wheel, and is fired, glazed and finished in the Glosters workshop.
