Elevate your crockery with this striking milk jug. Shaped by hand on a manual kick wheel by Sweet Salone's talented ceramicists and fired over a number of days, this is a truly unique addition to the table.

At the heart of every creation lies a meticulous process that can span from three to five weeks, influenced by the seasons. All of Sweet Salone ceramics are handmade by artisans of The Lettie Stuart Pottery Centre on the outskirts of Freetown, Sierra Leone.

Sustainability Features

All of Sweet Salone’s ceramics are made from natural materials. The clay is harvested from a nearby riverine area and left to dry naturally in the sun.

Sweet Salone products are sustainable by design. Each ceramic piece is made from locally sourced clay and is processed in studio in the Lettie Stuart Pottery Centre. The clay is left to dry naturally both before being processed as well as before being hand-glazed. The artisans use manual pottery wheels making it an emission free spinning process.

Each ceramic piece is hand spun using a kickwheel making it a completely manual spinning process.

Working closely with their makers, Sweet Salone ensures their artisans get fair pay for their work and supports the development of their practice and enrichment of Sierra Leone’s design and craft industries.

Sweet Salone creates beautifully unique products by combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, developing working relationships between local artisans and international designers.
