For generations back, artists in Derbyshire became pottery pioneers when they used their skills to turn strong clay into the famous Denby collections we love today. Denby are proud that their skills and attention to detail are still very much alive. They now have over 5000 glazes and a growing range of distinctive colours, shapes and patterns – all hand finished, so no piece is ever exactly the same. In fact, only after being passed through 25 pairs of hands is each piece then awarded the Denby seal of approval.

Today Denby continue to go from strength to strength, crafting timeless collections that exude English heritage and seeking out current trends to create modern ones.
