THE PERSON BEHIND THE WORK

Suzanne Scott

Owner and potter

The official history says Scott bought the family business in 2017 and continues it alongside pottery made by her parents and other local potters.

The story & the craft.

Village Pottery’s New London history begins with Daphne Large’s shop in 1973 and continues with Suzanne Scott’s purchase of the family business in 2017. The official story says Daphne and Ian remain involved in making pottery. Its functional range includes mugs, dinnerware, teapots and casseroles, giving readers a reason to begin with a piece they plan to use rather than a general souvenir search.

Scott’s ceramic necklaces, earrings and rings offer a smaller format for the same pottery practice. Decide between tableware and jewellery, then ask about the exact dimensions, glaze or components that matter to you. For people choosing several pieces together, the official gift-registry route describes working with a specialist by appointment. The PEI manufacturing statement concerns the pottery; imported clothing and other boutique goods, jewellery findings and packaging need separate origin checks.
