Those were the salad days

Is there anything more satisfying than drinking your coffee from a beautifully made ceramic mug? We think not. Lucy Coote clearly felt the same when she created

Salad Days, her collection of wheel-thrown tableware. By crafting functional, tactile pieces to be enjoyed every day, she aims to make the here and now your golden salad days. Available at Precinct 35 in Wellington or Ventana Creative Collective in Martinborough, saladdaysceramics.com.
