Hub design tableware that is batch-produced by Staffordshire and Derbyshire manufacturers. Andrew Tanner and Anna Thompson, who founded the company in 1998, initially prototyped the work themselves and received a high level of interest at One Year On at the New Designers show, Top Drawer and 100% Design. Their lines are produced in Staffordshire, and designer Wayne Hemmingway recently wrote in Ceramic Review, that “hub could steal a march on the larger manufacturers”.
