Established in 1994, our gallery reflects the creative spirit at Potters Croft and the work from this artistic region. Pottery, glass, jewellery and woodwork are displayed in the well lit conservatory that looks out over native gardens to the sea.

A selection of artists are exclusively featured. Sally Curry’s ceramic sculptures with unique feminine beauty have become very collectable, she has received national recognition. Sally has been selling her work through Potters Croft for ten years, her pieces sell well here because they are close to the environment they were inspired by - land, sky and sea are consistent inspirations that are clearly seen in her art.

Ben Richardson is one of Australia’s most accomplished wood fired potters. His work has been shown in numerous international exhibitions. Bens pots are for the cook, the flower arranger and for the connoisseur. Ben also uses a gas kiln to fire a range of smoothly glazed, Japanese influenced ceramics.

Paul Noordanus, master wood craftsman, supplies us with spectacular pieces of Tasmanian timbers superbly hand carved into fruit bowls, antipasto platters and practical food scoops. Blackwood, rare white sassafrass, black-heart sassafrass, myrtle, Huon pine, musk and eucalypt burls are beautifully shaped with figurative handles and hand-etched grooves.

Eve Howard, also derives her ideas from this abundantly rich seascape of birds and fishing boats. Eve’s sculptures are evocative representations of daily life by the sea, inquisitive pelicans and soaring albatross. Eve’s more recent sculptures are broody hens and restful garden birds.

We stock a selection of Billie Powell’s smoke-fired decorative pots. Her work is vibrantly coloured from ochre reds and oranges produced by the flame to dusty the grey touches from the smoke in her kiln.

Angus Douglas’ watercolour paintings capture the memories of Potters Croft and the Tasman Peninsular experience, he lives and works here…

We also feature Rynne Tanton’s crackle bowls, Sally Garth’s abalone and antique china jewellery. Glass and sterling silver jewellery, silk scarves a range of quality green, herbal and black teas from The Art of Tea. Tammy Holmes produces the homemade organic jams and marmalade that accommodation guests enjoy for breakfast, these low sugar products are available in the gallery.

The wood-fired potter, Tim Holmes (also designer and builder of Potters Croft), has a workshop and kiln beside the gallery.
