Sipp of Stoke, a new brand with a mission to revive Stoke-on-Trent’s rich pottery heritage, proudly unveils its collection of 100% UK-made fine bone china mugs. Crafted in the heart of the Potteries, each mug is meticulously handcrafted, passing through 26 skilled pairs of hands—a testament to the city’s legacy of craftsmanship and quality.
Produced at the esteemed Duchess China factory, a renowned name in British pottery, Sipp of Stoke mugs benefit from the same exceptional craftsmanship that supplies iconic retailers like Fortnum & Mason and Harrods. This partnership ensures that each mug reflects the finest traditions of British pottery, blending heritage with impeccable quality.
“Pottery is in my blood,” says Sam Wilcox, founder of Sipp of Stoke. “Growing up in Stoke-on-Trent, I was surrounded by the pottery industry. My father owned a pot bank, and my grandfather was a pottery wholesaler. Although my career took me into journalism and marketing, my passion for pottery has never faded. Sipp of Stoke is my way of honouring that legacy while ensuring the craft continues to thrive for future generations.”
Sipp of Stoke is dedicated to more than just producing pottery. The brand is deeply committed to preserving Stoke’s heritage, while also championing ethical sustainability. Each mug is crafted using locally sourced materials, and the packaging is eco-friendly and recycled to minimise environmental impact. Sipp of Stoke’s mission is not only to create beautiful, quality products but to drive positive change in local communities.
“There’s something uniquely personal about knowing exactly where your favourite mug comes from,” Sam adds. “At Sipp of Stoke, each mug is a tribute to the city’s unique pottery heritage. It’s our way of keeping British craftsmanship alive in a world where it’s becoming increasingly rare.”
As the brand continues to grow, Sipp of Stoke remains anchored in its core values: quality, authenticity, and community. Each Sipp mug is more than just a product—it’s a work of art for those who appreciate the tradition of British pottery and the story behind every piece.
