Arts & Culture
Lovely ceramics hand made by a local artist and cousin.
He has a studio in Newlyn where you see him in action and pick up a bargain or his ceramics are also on offer in several Galleries in and around the area. The spires on the roof of property were made by Lincoln although not as colourful as his usual works! The Duchess of Cornwall bought one of his jugs whilst in Penzance recently.
