Sparrows Nest Ceramics

I’m Cara Fitzmaurice of Sparrows Nest Ceramics. I live in West Cornwall and work from my home studio.

My work is inspired by the natural world around me, it encompasses my passion for the local landscape and seascape; to share this joy with you brings me much happiness.

My work is all hand-formed, it’s free forming and open, I believe there is nothing more authentic than hand-formed ceramics where imperfections connect the product to the makers, creating an organic and unique look.  Many of my pieces are made using primitive techniques such as raku techniques of smoke firing, surface marking with natural materials, and saggar.
