Biography
Rhian's mission is to create vessels that defy their handmade nature and create a sense of awe, by wheel-throwing elegant porcelain forms and hand-painting incredibly accurate cobalt blue designs. Together these elements result in a contemporary take on the much loved, and often nostalgic, combination of blue and white.
inspiration
Inspired by her Grandmother’s Willow Pattern collection, Rhian Malin continues the long historic tradition of hand-painting porcelain with cobalt-blue decoration.

Rhian Malin continues the long historic tradition of hand-painting porcelain with cobalt-blue decoration. Her elegant wheel-thrown porcelain vessels are the chosen surface, created to stretch this tradition into the 21st Century.
Taking a mathematical approach to applying each geometric design, each vessel is painstakingly divided up and mapped out by eye to highlight their tapering forms, resulting in a contemporary take on the much loved, and often nostalgic, combination of blue and white.
