A Splendid Dragon Ridge Tile From Maggie CurtisMaggie Curtis is a freelance ceramic artist who lives and works in Appledore, North Devon.

Most of Maggie’s ceramic pieces are bespoke like the majestic dragon ridge tile featured here, designed and handmade to a customer’s specification.

Maggie’s varied and experimental work includes architectural and garden ceramics, and mixed media sculpture, using a wide range of techniques and materials.

Maggie’s bespoke architectural ceramics follow the tradition of Victorian terracotta and include sculptural ridge tiles, finials and capitals, embossed tiles and friezes, garden sculpture as well as restoration and reproduction work.

She also produces vessels using fumed and smoked fired methods, and the ancient technique of terrasigillata, raku and pit firing, play a part in her work.

Prices vary with the size and complexity of the design.
