Meet the maker: Quail Ceramics

Quail Ceramics brings the animal kingdom to the table, from characterful garden birds and farmyard favourites to creatures from further afield. Each piece captures the personality of its subject, with carefully painted markings, expressive faces and a playful sense of humour. These British-designed ceramics are made to be used and enjoyed, whether it's a robin holding your breakfast egg, a cow pouring milk or a pair of birds keeping salt and pepper close to hand.

Every design begins in the UK, with many original models made by traditional ceramicists in the Midlands. Quail then works closely with small family businesses in Thailand and Sri Lanka, where skilled craftspeople fire and hand-paint each piece. It's this attention to detail that gives Quail's ceramics their distinctive character, while helping keep traditional hand-painting skills alive.
