Welcome to Fursbreck Pottery in Harray, a treasure trove of stunning hand crafted pottery made here in the magical Orkney Islands.

Take something magical back from the parish of Harray!

Established in 1977 by Andrew Appleby, now run by his son Nicky Appleby, the pottery is a must stop on the craft trail. Harray is a great central location for most key sites in Orkney, and the Harray Potter is a unique blend of shop and workshop, where new items are constantly in production.  Chat to the potters, watch beautiful items emerge from balls of clay before your eyes!  We are an open book of enthusiasm, who love to talk about our craft.

Inspired by Orkney's rich archaeological history, Andrew takes great pride in crafting the highest quality pottery that reflect his Neolithic interests. His son Nicky is obsessed with ergonomic form and creates flowing designs that are a joy in the hand.

In addition to the pottery, Andrew is also a keen writer having published a series of novels beginning with 'Skara' - all are available to purchase at the pottery.

Andrew and his family look forward to welcoming you to Orkney and to the Fursbreck Pottery! You can even bring your dog to the pottery too.
