About Blair Loveday

Blair Loveday is a collaboration born from the shared passion and creativity of two dedicated ceramic artists, Zoe and Ellie. What started as a journey of personal craft exploration has evolved into a studio that blends traditional ceramic techniques with modern ideas

Zoe first entered the world of ceramics in 2019, founding KO Ceramics. She is recognised for creating work for restaurants, chefs, interior shops, and private clients. Though largely self-taught, Zoe’s journey was deeply influenced by the guidance of the esteemed Anglian potter, Peter Walkem. While KO Ceramics still takes select orders, Zoe has increasingly focused her time on Blair Loveday, pouring her heart into making new work.

Ellie joined Zoe in the studio in 2022, bringing her own enthusiasm for ceramics and eagerness to learn. Over the next two years, Ellie immersed herself in the daily operations of a working pottery studio. The two worked side by side, teaching, collaborating, and building a deep mutual respect for each other's work.

After years of working alongside one another on personal projects and teaching together, Zoe and Ellie discovered that their creative paths aligned in ways that felt effortless. What began as a strong friendship and shared vision for ceramics blossomed into a business partnership. In 2024, they officially launched Blair Loveday, where their complementary skills and shared philosophy allowed them to bring something truly unique to the world of ceramics.
