A little bit about us.
Hey, my name's Jack, and my dad is Tony.
Together we founded Laverick & Son in 2018. We have had a a shared passion for pottery ever since he introduced me to the material from a young age, but it wasn't until around 2018 that we decided to combine our skills into something new and exciting.
That's when we decided to try and create our very own ceramic lighting company.
My dad had made ceramic lamps many years ago when he was younger and starting out in his new career as a self employed ceramic artist, and I'd also designed and made some lights in my design classes when I was at college so there was a shared interest in creating lighting between the two of us already.
We have been honing our knowledge and skills in the field of ceramic manufacturing and studio pottery for years. My dad has been an artist and studio potter in his own right for many decades, and I have been growing businesses around pottery for over 10 years now specialising in slip casting porcelain.
Our vision for this brand was to not only fuse form with function, but to bring beauty into people's homes and spaces through the beautiful material that is Porcelain.
Fast forward to 2024 and our company is expanding. My older brother and Tony's other son Tom, took a leap of faith and decided to join the Laverick & Son team, so we decided a name change was fitting and we rebranded as Laverick & Sons to reflect the growing family business.
Tony Laverick is one of the Britains leading ceramic studio potters with a career stretching back over 30 years. He is renowned for his skillful use of porcelain and complex use of glazes and lustres.
Jack Laverick is part of the new generation of ceramic designers & makers using clay to produce contemporary and on-trend designs for the home and has amassed a large portfolio of stockists in the United Kingdom and internationally over the last 4 years.
Why Porcelain?
Using porcelain allows a clean simplicity to our designs, the sculptural detailing is emphasised by its brilliant translucency, to produce a beautifully soft and ambient light. Slightly warmer in hue than a similar type of clay called bone china, it is the ideal material for producing a warm golden glow in any living space or interior
Luxurious and functional, Laverick & Sons designs are made to stand the test of time. Using traditional manufacturing methods, the pair have brought their skills and ideas together to create a collection of exquisite, contemporary porcelain lighting. All of our clay is sourced locally in nearby Stoke On Trent.
