‘Made of Stern Stuff’

Doris and Co. British Creamwares are made by hand in Stoke-on-Trent at one of the last remaining potteries using an old fashioned process. No two are quite the same.

Every single piece is made to last several lifetimes. Neither faddish, nor throw-away, think of it as an heirloom or a memento.

Truly comforting, Doris ware warms the body and soul. Good to hold, beautiful to behold.

Thoughtful gifts.

Creamware is an English cream coloured earthenware with certain advantages. It’s longer lasting, less likely to chip and very versatile. It can go from oven to table, to dishwasher to freezer.

But the nicest thing about creamware, is the way it holds an even temperature. The coffee is never scalding but once poured, the perfect drinking temperature, and the mug warms the hands beautifully not to mention the heart.

Nipper Jolly Useful Board is a cheeky little number, completely dreamt up by Doris. He’s handsome enough to hang on the wall by the cooker and always ready to jump into Nipper Cold action as a chopping surface, nibbles server and all round useful chap. Pop him into the oven with a round cheese on and he comes into his own as Nipper - Hot lovely melting cheese to dip into with friends and family. A must for any kitchen. Oven, dishwasher, Aga safe to 150 °C.Product height: 0.5cm, Product width: 14cm, Product length with handle: 28cm
