Alan and Julia Rhodes established their rural pottery on the Coromandel Peninsula in 1977. They were fortunate to discover on their property beautiful stoneware clay that they fire up to 1300ºC and are able to produce lovely handthrown pots and sink basins with magnificent glazes that are unique to the Coromandel.
All their dishes and the fish are handmade in their studio set amongst native bush, and are ovenproof, microwave and dishwasher safe.
 Alan drifted into potting after 5 years with the Hamilton County Bluegrass Band and is now still playing music with Julia in the Irish band ‘The DescendNz’.
In 2003, Alan won the top prize in the pottery section of the Thames Arts Society Exhibition, all pottery is now sold exclusively through the studio on the Coromandel.
