John Julian
It was for his iconic ball-shaped pestle and mortar, used by Nigel Slater and Nigella Lawson, that sculptor and designer Julian Sainsbury first became known. Dissatisfied with mass manufacturing, he set up rural Wiltshire pottery, John Julian, in 2013 to craft exquisite, utilitarian ceramic tableware.
As part of his commitment to working towards net zero emissions by 2050 Julian uses greener practices, such as single firing and small batch production. The pieces are handcrafted from raw clay by highly skilled potters using traditional techniques, and have a tactile and timeless quality, which will last a lifetime.
