Who Are We

Bath Potters Supplies is a family run business with a knowledgeable friendly team. We are passionate about serving the ceramics community and keeping the craft of ceramics alive.

Founded in 1979 by four potters from Bath. Kate & Steve Mills, Mike Bailey & Paul Stubbs had the aim of keeping ceramic artists well stocked in the South West. During this time, Bath Potters own label glazes were developed and continue to be popular to this day.

Roger & Elizabeth Howe took over the reins in 2005, and helped grow Bath Potters into one of the countries leading suppliers of ceramic materials and equipment.

Roger retired in 2023, to leave Elizabeth, along with daughter Elsbeth and son-in law Thiaan at the helm. With the continued aim to deliver first -class service to both our loyal and new customers alike.

Our website is a user friendly place for buying everything you require for ceramics. We strive to be the leading online retailer in the ceramics industry, and offer an excellent same day dispatch on orders placed before 3pm.
