Eòrna Pottery is contemporary tableware made by potter Anna MacDonald. Each piece is wheel-thrown or hand-built with care in Ardnamurchan, a peninsula which marks the most westerly point on the mainland.

The look and feel of her current collection is inspired by the Hebridean shoreline of Tiree where she grew up and the surrounding landscape of Ardnamurchan. Texturally, the same satisfying feeling of a grooved, ridged limpet shell or a sea-smoothed pebble is re-created in her pieces. The colours of the sea in the sun or when it’s stormy, the silvery white beaches and the soft pink of the shells in the sand feature in her glazes.

She uses traditional small-batch production pottery methods and techniques, developed through years of learning and working for other potters across Scotland. Modern equipment such as an electric wheel and kiln make life a lot easier but much of the practice remains the same.

Eòrna Pottery is microwave, dishwasher and oven safe, and as durable as it is beautiful; her work is designed to last.

The name Eòrna is the Scottish Gaelic word for Barley – Tiree is poetically known as Tìr Ìosal an Eòrna or ‘the Low-lying land of the Barley’.
