Sian Leeper

Originally a freelance art potter and designer working both sides of the Atlantic, Sian is one of Moorcroft's most prolific designers, who can also both paint and tubeline her own work. A specialist in designs featuring animals and birds, she has brought forward images ranging from polar bears to lions: from gorillas to elephants. In parallel, Sian has mastered the art of structured design, starting with Cleopatra Blues in 2001, and moving on to Sophie Christina in 2002. Another 2002 range, Tembusu, has organic qualities, very much in the Moorcroft tradition. Her limited editions in the 2002 Moorcroft catalogue, Ranthambore, Champerico and South Pacific will be hard to find.

The Moorcroft story began in 1897, through the groundbreaking work of ceramicist extraordinaire, William Moorcroft, who began to sell his work to retailers, including the prestigious Liberty of London, under his own signature. Unsurprisingly, William Moorcroft’s name and reputation grew following gold medals at International Fairs and even a Queen’s cypher, and over a hundred years of W Moorcroft Ltd began.

Still fiercely independent, Moorcroft continues to create art pottery, using its renowned heritage craft techniques and acclaimed line up of designers, at the highest level in the Applied Arts. The Pottery’s ethos has always been that Moorcroft will continue to hold its revered name of design that does not standstill. Design now includes jewellery – mined, crafted and fired to perfection, and other creations are set to follow
