Sourced direct from the studio. Formed for everyday.
In a previous life I spent years hanging artwork on walls. Paintings in galleries, prints at art fairs, made to be looked at.
But the handmade things we hold every day never got the same credit. The mug you reach for first. The plate that makes dinner feel like something. The vase for your favourite seasonal blooms.
So I made a shop for them. Work direct from independent UK makers, all of it made to be used, held, lived with and not saved for best.
Nothing throwaway, nothing made for landfill. Celebrating craftsmanship with honest, functional, design-led wares, and real investment in the makers behind every piece.
I'm Luci. This is Fodder.
Emma has been stocking with us for five years, and Brutes Ceramics has always had one of the most distinctive visual identities on our shelves. So when a new collection arrived that was figurative, playful and portraiture-led, we wanted to know what had happened. The answer is exactly what you'd hope.
Caroline Dickinson spent a decade designing prints for high street brands, watching collections roll over before anyone had time to love them. Eventually she decided to do something different. She now screen prints onto preloved menswear shirts in her South London studio, one by one, each one of a kind. We sat down with her to talk about slow making, imperfection, and the shirt that became the best networking hack ever.
Jessica Charge started I Have This Thing With Ceramics in 2018 as a personal Instagram account, purely for her own visual pleasure. Seven years later it has become one of the UK's most trusted ceramics resources. We collaborated with Jess on the Hope Collection and sat down to talk about community, the risks facing the industry, and what hope means right now.
