Foxfield — beyond the pack since 1981

Hand-sculpted bone china, ceramic & porcelain

Greenford, Ohio — Studio Editions

Greenford, Ohio — Est. 1981

Originally The Foxfield Atelier

Foxfield sprang to life in Greenford, Ohio in 1981. From the beginning, the purpose was singular: to create studio edition fox-themed artware in vitreous china and earthenware bodies.

A nationally recognized collection of horse show trophies was also part of the original production, but this work was discontinued in 2005 to focus entirely on the fox.

The name changed to Foxfield Ltd. in 1989. The devotion to the craft never did.

The Craft

Bone China

The most refined of ceramic bodies — translucent, luminous, and remarkably strong. Each piece is fired at extreme temperatures to achieve that distinctive warm glow.

Vitreous Earthenware

Dense, glass-like clay bodies that hold fine detail through sculpting, glazing, and multiple firings. Ideal for the dimensionality Tim's fox forms demand.

Hand Sculpted

Every piece shaped by a single pair of hands. No molds from factories, no assistants. Forty years of muscle memory guiding each curve and expression.

Every mark Tim throws begins in porcelain and patience. Here, just once, it takes a four-color detour — because even the most solemn kiln deserves a little whimsy.
