I’m Duncan. I’m a chef and potter living in the French Alps, where I make teapots by hand, using local high-mineral clay from Puisaye. I came to pottery through food—wanting to create simple, honest pieces to compliment the food I create. Over time, I found myself drawn again and again to the shape and function of teapots. Each teapot I make is unglazed, so the clay can breathe, take on the flavour of tea, and build its own character with use. For me, a good teapot becomes part of your routine—it’s stained with tea, softened by time, and used often.
