Paul Cardew for Portmeirion | Botanic Garden Teapots

The world of fine ceramics was transformed in 1993 when Portmeirion partnered with the renowned Cardew Design of Devon. This legendary collaboration fused the iconic botanical art of Susan Williams-Ellis with the whimsical, intricate miniature-work of master designer Paul Cardew.

These highly sought-after teapots—available in both large and miniature scales—are celebrated for their faithful, hand-crafted replicas of the Botanic Garden range. Each piece serves as a three-dimensional canvas, bringing the beloved floral motifs to life through Cardew’s signature wit and sculptural detail.

Highly Collectable Editions: Our curated collection features the most coveted releases from this era, including:

• The ‘China Stall’ & ‘Moving Day’: Masterpieces of intricate detail and nostalgia.

• ‘The Kitchen Sink’: A quintessential example of Cardew’s humorous "miniature within a miniature" style.

• ‘Green Betty’: The elusive, USA-exclusive edition that remains a primary target for serious global collectors.

Guaranteed Authenticity & Provenance: As specialists in the secondary market, we pride ourselves on offering the highest quality pre-loved and vintage Cardew products.
