Vintage Welsh Studio Pottery Wall Pocket by Solva Pottery - Holly Design

A beautiful vintage Welsh studio pottery wall pocket from Solva Pottery - one of those pieces that instantly feels at home. It has that classic creamy, speckled glaze I love, with a softly hand-painted abstract holly leaf design that gives it the sweetest, understated seasonal feel without being overtly “festive.”

I’ve styled it here with extra-long fire lighter matches (so handy by the fireplace), but it would be just as lovely used as a little wall vase for fresh cuttings, dried stems, or even a sprig of something foraged on a winter walk. The shape has such a gentle presence, flared, tactile, and perfectly rustic with a looped handle that hangs beautifully from a simple nail or peg.

Pieces from Solva always carry that quiet Welsh charm: unfussy, earthy, and thoughtfully made. This one feels especially special.
