Melissa Tully wheel-throws and hand-glazes every piece herself in a small home studio on the Mornington Peninsula, drawing colour and texture from the coast around her. She started at a pottery class in 2017, though her first clay came from a hill on the family farm as a child. Her functional range of mugs, vases, planters and serving ware splits into two lines: soft coastal palettes and bolder geometric patterns. She sells online, at markets and by pickup in Mt Martha.
