Welcome to the next chapter.
What was an iconic New Zealand pottery is now a movement. The passion for Morris & James lives on, right here. If you find joy in colour, a slower pace and the simple things in life, you’ll feel right at home. Come and be part of it.
A Matakana institution established in 1977. The pottery itself is now closed, so join us here for what’s next.
Celebrating New Zealand artists.
Handmade in New Zealand, by New Zealand makers. Morris & James began as a place where artists made things by hand, and this is the next chapter: a small, changing selection of work to help you discover other local makers. First up, ceramic artist Wilma J Design of the Waikato.
