A porcelain cup with bee decal and gold luster, hand made by Red Earth Design.

Hand built porcelain with textured honeycomb detail and a miniature handle.

Measurements: Height 8cm, diameter 9cm. As each piece is hand-built each measurement may vary.

The beauty of handmade is that no two products will be exactly the same. All items are handmade, this means the product may vary slightly from the image.

About the maker:

Identical twins, Karen and Claire Gibson graduated from the University of Ulster at Belfast in 1996, each with a BA. Honours Degree and then in 1998 with a Masters in Fine and Applied Art, ready to take on the world, but first, a bit of retail experience was necessary.

After two years with various jobs in the retail industry, enough management experience had been gained to begin the search for Studio premises. Alongside this, they were busy completing the LEDU (now Invest NI) business start up course, and approaching the Princes Trust, business plan in hand, for any help they could offer.
