Hi! I’m Dan! Founder of THE BROKE POTTER and I specialise in quiet, handmade and functional ceramics for the home.

Since catching the clay bug while teaching at a children’s summer camp 4 years ago, Dan has been elbow-deep in clay most days since then. Having recently come back to Hong Kong, Dan has started teaching beginners pottery classes and selling his work. The Broke Potter was kickstarted and dreamt up over lunch with some colleagues one day over a joke about being a penny-less Art graduate and the name has stuck ever since! Each piece is handmade with care and made to be used. See if there’s anything you like, you may just find your new favourite mug!
