Discuss, Buy and Trade Sally Tuffin Pottery with other collectors 
The pottery uses traditional techniques and all pots are hand thrown, with decorating techniques that include incising, slip trailing, spinning and floating colour. Her work is highly prized with early and limited pieces fetching premiums. In the December 1999 Phillips auction, a Sally Tuffin Polar Bears footbath commissioned by Phillips for sale in its first ever Sally Tuffin auction made four times the estimate selling for £2,300
In 1986, Sally and her husband Richard Dennis took a stake in Moorcroft
along with Hugh Edwards. From 1995-1998 Sally also designed for Poole
Pottery and her range is still a bestseller particularly as it
was chosen as one of the designs to be used on the tail fin of the controversial
BA decision to decorate its aeroplanes with patterns other than the
Union Jack. Note: This site is not affiliated with Sally Tuffin or Dennis China Works. It is designed to provide information to collectors of Sally Tuffin Pottery. site by lincs-on-line | hosted by ukhosts.com | sponsors farmshop.uk.com |
