Welcome to Ankor

Ankor is run by ceramicist Jethro Lynch and jeweller Tegen Montgomerie. They share a studio just north of Penzance, in the west of Cornwall.

Ceramics

Ankor’s ceramicist, Jethro Lynch, has been learning his craft under the watchful eye of Jack Doherty. Working in Jack’s Newlyn art studio is the perfect complement and inspiration to Jethro’s own ceramic work.

Jethro works with stoneware clay bodies, layering slips and glazes of marine shades to create functional ware with a simple but stunning aesthetic.

The Sand & Sea range echoes the many moods of the ocean, with waves crashing against the shore. Whilst the Ankor Tableware range is made up of simple linear forms and modern minimalist shades of soft grey.

Jewellery

Each piece is delicately crafted from solid sterling silver by Tegen Montgomerie in her Cornish cottage studio. Tegen delights in experimenting with different ways of making to create pieces that have interesting textures which carefully balance the hard and soft elements of rock and water; land and sea - such as the sea-worn stone textures of her silver pebble earrings.

Pearls set into the jewellery are sustainably sourced cultured freshwater pearls in shades of soft pink and natural white. All pieces are available with a choice of either white or pink pearls.

Pendant chains are 45cm fine diamond-cut curb chains as standard. Rings available in standard sizes: J, L, N, P, R. Bangles available in standard sizes: extra small 57mm, small 60mm, medium 63mm, large 67mm, extra large 71mm.

Custom sizes & bespoke orders also welcome
