About Us
Bandicoot Pottery Cobargo NSW
Studio of Daniel Lafferty and Gabrielle Powell
Bandicoot Pottery specialises in handmade decorative ceramics and pottery homewares. We offer pottery classes, host annual open studio events, and maintain a showroom gallery with unique homeware items. Our studio welcomes everyone—children, youth, adults, and families who are interested in exploring pottery and purchasing beautiful handmade pieces. We aim to share the joy of ceramics by providing opportunities for creative expression, skill-building, and connections with like-minded individuals.
Bandicoot Pottery is the place where we fulfil our dreams and passions for ceramics, and you can too! Our love for pottery began when we trained in Ceramics at the ANU Canberra School of Art. Our wares are hand-crafted and individually designed, and we specialise in functional decorative works as well as one-off wood-fired pieces. We are also committed to sustainability, actively recycling and upcycling packaging, and taking steps to reduce our studio's environmental footprint.
We would love for you to visit our pottery studio, check out our creative space, discover our little patch of Bega Valley paradise, browse for treasures to buy, and fall in love with our pottery. There are sure to be a few surprises for anyone interested in meeting creative makers in their space.
Pottery is the perfect hobby for both children and adults. Pottery is an experience that requires intense focus but allows your frustrations and worries to melt away. Whether you’re a beginner looking to try pottery for the first time, or you have experience and want to develop your skills, we have a class for you.
Our facilities are bigger: a large training room, pottery wheels, a hand-building space, an undercover kiln, and a clay preparation area. We are working together to offer pottery workshops and classes in our community, so we can continue to share our love of clay and build new connections.
Our studio showroom is open by appointment because we have irregular hours. Although we are usually working in the studio, it's always good to confirm that we are here before visiting.
Please give us a call or email us for more information.
