Keith Brymer Jones is a master ceramicist and design expert who has over four decades of knowledge and experience under his belt. He is the designer behind the award-winning Keith Brymer Jones Word Range. And he also works collaboratively with both British & International designers, artists, illustrators & fashion houses.

After an early career devoted to ceramics, Keith created pots and different shapes for a string of large retailers. They have included Laura Ashley, Heals, Monsoon, Habitat and Conran. In 2008, he met his business partner, Dominic Speelman and subsequently joined MAKE International as Director and Head of Design. They set up a studio in a converted bakery based in Whitstable along the Kent coastline. Keith designs every single item on his potter’s wheel before he takes the prototypes to China to work with his colleagues at the factories. Keith has visited the factories at least twice a year to meet with his quality control team on the factory floor to ensure the highest standard of quality is maintained.

During lockdown, Keith was in his Whitstable based studio with a lot of stoneware clay. Keith is fascinated by different clays giving you a different aesthetic. He wanted to produce a range that was more organic in both its look and approach.

The ceramic stoneware mug has a glazed main body. The bottom section of the mug remains unglazed revealing a contrasting rougher and more organic texture.

Finally! A new range of ceramics has arrived from Keith Brymer Jones. Available in 4 different colour combinations, this ceramic stoneware mug comes in pebble grey with a contrasting bright red wavy line. The mug holds 350ml and is both dishwasher & microwave safe.

“ I am very much a believer in producing work of quality and an aesthetic that stands the test of time. We all have a favourite mug and hopefully yours is one of mine! ”
