A couple of months ago I began supplying my soap to a local retailer, Glosters in Porthmadog. Glosters is a beautifully curated gift store, stocking handmade items made in-house, locally and further afield in the UK.
They took a selection of my regular range, but also wanted something exclusive, just for them.
One half of the Glosters team (Tom) is a potter (who sells his ceramics in the store) and the store also has a nautical feel to it. It made sense therefore when Myfanwy (the other half of the Glosters team and textiles whiz) said that she would like a ‘Potters’ soap and a ‘Sea’ themed soap. I sent away for some sample fragrances, and in due course Myfanwy chose her two favourites.
This is the Potters Soap, fragranced with a fresh, clean scent of green florals and citrus, on a base of amber and musk. The dark blue reflects the colour of the Glosters’ logo, and for this one I kept an element of my signature drop swirl:
Potters’ Soap
And this is the Sea Soap, fragranced with a refreshing salty sea fragrance (of course!), designed with the sea in mind and topped with real sea salt from Halen Môn:
Sea Salt Soap
Both these bars will be available exclusively from Glosters very soon.
