Welcome to Osborne Pottery
A small family studio creating handcrafted pottery and artisan candles with care, character, and a deep connection to nature. Each piece is made to be lived with, loved, and given with meaning – something special for your home or someone else’s.
Crafted with Care
“With years of combined expertise, we infuse our creations with both tradition and innovation. Each piece reflects our bond and our dedication to the craft, bringing a personal touch to every item.”
A family affair
We’re a mother-daughter studio tucked away in mid-Cornwall, where everything we make starts with our hands and a lot of heart.
Frances has spent a lifetime shaping clay into timeless domestic pieces, using local materials and a quiet, thoughtful approach to her craft. Rachael brings her love of metalwork and playful form into sculptural ceramics and fresh designs for the home.
We pour ourselves into each piece—whether it’s a candle to mark a moment or a mug you reach for every morning. Everything here is made to be lived with, loved, and shared.
Thanks for stopping by.
