Pan Pottery

Noosa Heads, Queensland

Established in 2014, Pãn Pottery pots are hand-made by Angus McDiarmid using a traditional wood fire kiln, kick wheel and hand-dug local clays. Each pot is completely unique as the clay and fire decide the finish of the pot.

“Making functional and durable pots from local materials inspires me endlessly. From the beginning, I was taught that life and pottery are one, there is no distinction. I believe the process and intention that goes into what you make is just as important as the final result. In 2011, I cycled from Patagonia, Argentina to Ecuador. I was on my bicycle for ten months and spent much of that time in the Andes. Along the way I was invited into many homes and experienced the joy and beauty of living closely with traditional craft and pottery. My travels took my wife and I to India where I studied in a traditional pottery studio on the foothills of the Himalayas in 2012. I now work from my hand-built home studio on the shores of Lake Weyba, Noosa Heads, Queensland.”
