Ian and his wife have a wealth of knowledge and expertise in pottery techniques and materials. We were very impressed and will certainly purchase in future.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting and purchasing from Sensei Pottery and I must say I was thoroughly impressed. The self taught artist's unique style and attention to detail truly made his pieces stand out. From delicate teapots to intricate vases, every item showcased in the gallery was a work of art in its own right. Overall, I would highly recommend visiting . You will be amazed by the artist's skill and creativity.

Amazing pots, love the functionality of the pieces. Both the artist and his wife were so welcoming and down to earth. I wish I needed more pieces to be able to buy from this great place!

Nice visit if you're in the area. Small gallery with workshop, cute doggo, sincere, award winning and very knowledgeable artist.
We picked up some keep cups but would have loved to adopt some key peices. Gorgeous craftsmanship! Definitely next trip.
