Beneath the Ben, Beyond the Loch

Beneath the Ben, Beyond the Loch is a collection born from the soul of the Highland landscape, a collaboration with the rugged geology of Argyll & Bute. Each form reflects the land’s dual nature: the deep hollows carved by ice and time, and the proud peaks that meet the Highland wind.

​

Some forms rest like lochans, quiet, reflective, and sheltering. Others rise like Bens, bold, proud, and reaching. We draw inspiration from maps not simply as decoration but as a cartography of feeling, a way to honour how the land remembers, how we move through it, and how it stirs our emotions.

​

Within each glaze, if the light is just right, there is something rarer still: a whisper of Scottish gold, panned by hand from the wild rivers around us. This is not added for opulence but as an emblem of place, of Tyndrum’s vanishing histories and its legacy with gold.

​

Each piece is born of provenance, crafted with care, rooted in sustainability, and shaped by the elements, a form deeply grounded in place. Finished in Aurora Green, recalling the crisp Highland skies where the aurora dances, and Ethical Blue, a cobalt-free glaze that reflects our commitment to ethics and sustainability, these stoneware works hold not only the colours of the land but the stories of our values.

​

Fired to cone 6 using renewable energy, every piece is a testament to mindful craftsmanship. Created with the lowest possible carbon footprint, yet designed to endure, they connect us to the timeless spirit of the Highlands.
