Zoe not only treasured but used on a daily basis, a pottery mug she’d made as a child. That is until recently when the vessel tumbled to the floor and broke into several, irreparable pieces.

Unbeknown to her, partner Matt secretly arranged a potter’s wheel session so she could make a replacement here at Eastnor Pottery. Matt even managed to get Zoe through the studio door oblivious to the purpose of visit. It was only when I greeted them both by name that she twigged something was going on – Nice work Matt!
