OFFICIAL ‘A COLLECTOR’S DREAM’ EXHIBITION CATALOGUE 

26th October -24th December 2024

The Griselda Hill Pottery Ltd has been making Wemyss Ware® in Ceres, 
Fife, for nearly forty years, and this exhibition aims to showcase the best 
of our craftsmanship. We have drawn inspiration from various collections 
of Wemyss Ware®, some now dispersed and one still in the making. The 
main influences come from the collections of Iris Fox, George Bellamy and 
John Garner. A few items, such as the Gambler pigs, are based on original 
Wemyss Ware® pieces in unknown collections. 
Each piece in the exhibition comes with a certificate. 
The small team creating Wemyss Ware® consists of Potter Rena Simpson, 
who has skilfully constructed monocles for pigs and embossed tulip 
flowers on baluster vases, Elaine Syme, our Head Decorator, Roseanne Hoy, 
painter, and myself, Griselda Hill. We love doing what we do, and hope this 
is reflected in the quality of the pottery.
The collectors featured in this exhibition are Iris Fox, George Bellamy and 
John Garner. They are united by a shared passion for Wemyss Ware®, and 
are in good company. Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, Elton John and 
King Charles, to name but a few, have also collected the beautiful pottery. 
Its popularity remains undiminished.
I do hope you enjoy browsing our selling exhibition, either in this catalogue, 
online or in person here in Ceres.
