The sale of these wonderful pieces of ceramic art uplifts and supports the Ardmore community and their families. Ed Pascoe regularly visits the Ardmore studio to select new pieces for exhibition in America. Special commissions are also undertaken for collectors. Each piece of Ardmore is a unique work of ceramic art.
At Ardmore, we are conscious that a degree of exclusivity is important to our customers, which is why each of our ceramic pieces is either unique or produced as part of a strictly limited run.
We understand that Ardmore collectors do not define luxury by price alone, but rather by the way that each Ardmore piece makes them feel. Its all about each persons individual aesthetic, and their response to fine materials and masterful artistry.
The story of the people behind each piece is critical to their appreciation of the finished product.
Exclusively yours
Our limited production makes Ardmore coveted, rather than expected. Quality is its own reward.
