About Jo Heckett
Working from her studio at London’s Cockpit Arts, Jo Heckett makes colourful porcelain gifts, jewellery and magnets. She specialises in both bespoke and ‘off the peg’ items, with cute and quirky gifts for weddings, engagements, Christenings, birthdays and more. Jo has loads of fresh ideas to make a special occasion even more special, and is happy to personalise any of her standard items, as well as to create something totally new.
Jo has special interest in weddings, and has a dedicated weddings section on the website, covering gifts, tokens and favours, both ready to buy and made to order.
Jo believes it’s the whole experience that makes a gift special, and customers can expect quality and the personal touch from start to finish.
Originally from Cork in the Irish Republic, Jo trained at Chelsea School of Art and Brighton University where she received a BA (Hons) in 3D Design (Wood, Metal, Ceramics and Plastics). She lives in London with her husband and two children.
Jo is inspired by the simple (and best) things in life – home, fun, family, food and friends.
As Jo puts it _‘there’s nothing quite like the buzz of knowing someone’s bought something that I’ve made that they really love, whether it’s for themselves or a gift. You can’t beat that.’
Jo also has a second business, Molly and Berts, designing and selling lots of London inspired goodies, which she runs with her husband.
