The ceramic industry has seen a resurgence in recent years. In the last few seasons, a flurry of modern designs have hit the high street.

From minimally-glossed vases to ornately hand-painted bowls. From charming serving platters to unusual plant pots. Once reserved for those with homes worthy of a feature in Architectural Digest magazine, pottery is now accessible to the masses.

On the high street, we’ve spotted everything from dense stoneware designs in natural tones to pretty earthenware pieces glazed in glorious colours! From serious and sleek to cheeky and fun. We’re sharing 10 of our favourites below. We think there’s something to suit every taste;
