Carron Pottery, Craft Shop & Gallery
THE POTTERY
The pottery is in an extension at the rear of the shop, where on most days you can see Rob either pugging clay, throwing on the wheel, decorating/glazing, packing a kiln...... or just resting between jobs.
In November 2016 Rob & Jan's son, Peter, joined the pottery as Rob's apprentice, having been a chef for 30 years, he is bringing another dimension to the pottery as a hand builder, but is also learning to throw.
The pottery is hand thrown domestic stoneware and in a wide range of tableware and commissioned pieces. You can buy small items such as a butter pat or mini vase to a large lamp base or even a full dinner service.
Domestic pots are ovenproof, microwave and dishwasher safe, and are decorated with varying shades and mixtures of white, blue, green and brown.
To see examples of our pottery and a price list, please go to Pottery Gallery in the menu. If you wish to purchase any pottery please contact us to discuss your order. Commissions are always welcome.
Parcels posted worldwide at cost.
CRAFT SHOP
The Craft Shop is located in the old school-room, plus a wee room at the side. Here we display, not only our pottery but a very wide and comprehensive range of Scottish Crafts. The Shop specialises in top quality Scottish Crafts, of which there is an abundance.
Within the shop you can see more ceramics from around Scotland, glass, woodcraft, Scottish silver and all manner of jewellery, tweeds and knitwear. There is much more besides, from a postcard to that special present for weddings, birthdays or anniversaries.
We also have a selection of good books on wildlife, climbing and walking, with a modest section for children.
