History
Andy Titcomb studied at Exeter College of Art and Design, earning an honours bachelor's degree in Art. Andy Titcomb started business in 1983 in a converted pigsty in Topsham Devon. Early work was selected by the Design Centre of London. He made his first teapot...a black and white Harlequin in 1983. Encouraged by the support of The Teahouse in Covent Garden London, he made many more teapots. In the mid 80's he moved to larger premises in Devon and began exporting to France, Germany, Italy and Japan as well as supplying many shops in the UK with a wide range of unusual teapots. In 1990 he moved to North Cornwall in order to combine home and workplace and escape the rat race of Devon! In 1994 he was honoured to be presented to Prince Charles as part of Cornwall's "In Pursuit of Excellence" scheme. He exports a large percentage of his work to the U.S.A. and in recent years has been commissioned to make various salt and pepper sets for the Salt and Pepper Collectors Club of America.
