Design-driven British ceramics brand 1882 Ltd. embraces an innovative ethos where no structural, sculptural or finishing challenge is impossible. Rooted in heritage craftsmanship, the brand fuses innovative artistry with centuries-old skills to redefine contemporary ceramics.
For Collect 2025, 1882 Ltd. presents one-off and limited-edition pieces by leading British creatives, including furniture designer Max Lamb, ceramicist Leah Jensen and couture designer Giles Deacon. Each piece, handcrafted by master potters at 1882 Ltd.’s factory in Stoke-on-Trent, marries traditional expertise with modern forms and innovative thought, pushing ceramics to be both functional objects and sculptural art. Challenging material limits, potters’ expertise and artistic ingenuity, each piece has a curiosity and playfulness of form, pattern, colour and texture that captivates and enthrals.
