Comments from visitors who have taken the tour include:

• "I have seen Morris & James in many magazines and I know interior experts, friends and family all who covet their tiles, mugs, bowls or jugs!  I was so impressed when I finally got to visit the cafe and the store and see the craftspeople at work.  The work is  modern, beautiful and quintessentially NZ, what a terrific success story".  Charlotte Dawson, TV presenter
• “Morris & James is a special place to visit.  It is wonderful to see first hand real craftsmanship at work .
• "I was amazed to discover a single glazed pot is handled 17 times during the various processes before arriving in the showroom."
• "The contrast between unfired and fired glazed ware is incredible. We were impressed by the skills required to glaze decorative pieces without being able to see the final fired colour."
