The name ShprixieLand comes from the combination of my and my wife’s nicknames, Shpriken and Pixie, and is what we called our quirky mountain home. Likewise, the pottery that we make here at ShprixieLand is a collaboration between the two of us and with our use of pattern, colour and hand drawn images it could be said to be somewhat eccentric.
Our delight in living and working together has inspired us for the last 12 years to make really fun and functional pottery that is not only a joy to behold but that is a pleasure to be used everyday. We like our work to be a celebration of the life we live and so there’s often a lot of humour in it, affirmations of love and reflections on what it means to live a joyful life.
We have a couple of distinctive lines of pottery. One is white glazed wheel thrown pots that we decorate with fired on decals that we make from our own drawings. More recently though, we’ve been excited to focus more on hand-building highly ornate porcelain pots in bright colours.
