Bas Oorschot returned to Northern Ontario seeking a simpler life in the country, after acquiring an Honours Degree in Science and in the Arts, from Guelph University.

He then found his true passion with the clay, by working in the family business for many years, completing a full apprenticeship with Tony Oorschot.

While working, he attended the Craft and Design program from Canadore College and honed his skills with the clay.

Later, Liliane joined him bringing her own passion to the business. Together they continue the tradition of manufacturing high quality handcrafted functional stoneware.
