Every single item is made by hand, from a small salt dish to a generous trough platter. No matter how small or big, they each go through the same creative process, which sees the clay moulded, shaped, smoothed and painted during 15 different stages on the journey from clay to table. Each piece is a work of art in itself, yet it’s meant to be used and enjoyed, loved and shared, every single day…

Wonki Ware was founded by Di Marshall, almost 20 years ago, in a small town on the Garden Route in South Africa. The original workforce of 3 has since grown to a team of over 80 people, and Di continues to be the creative force that steers this remarkable ship. Her enthusiasm is infectious and her humility, in the face of such creative success, is as unique as her wonderful product.
