Caring for our planet and limiting our environmental impact is something that Rebecca is incredibly passionate about and we are always seeking ways to improve our practice.
Cornish Pots are designed to last a lifetime and then to be gift friends and family. Designed with modern simplicity combining form and function, they outlast trends and will never go out of fashion.
One of the biggest issues for potteries and ceramic manufacturers is the amount of energy needed to fire the kilns. There is a continuing questions as to how to make this greener and we use a British renewable energy group specialising in sustainable energy. At Cornish Pots we fire the majority of our pottery at a higher earthenware heat . We do this to make the ceramics incredibly strong and durable, much less susceptible to cracks and chips, and will last a lifetime and longer. The heat from the kiln keeps us warm in winter, dries our clothes on a mizzley, Cornish day and the pets favourite snoozing place.
