Showpony was set up in 2006 by Emma Henderson. Emma had recently graduated in Product Design from the world-famous Glasgow School of Art in Scotland. Before that, she worked in the film industry buying and making props after completing her studies in Sociology. The road to Showpony was an interesting one!
Emma started screen printing after leaving art school and was quickly hooked. Showpony’s studio in the East End of Glasgow has a dedicated print workshop where much of Showpony's products are produced.
Emma loves to design quirky products that you will love and treasure, designs must be fun and interesting - often with an element of humour. She is also very conscious about how the products are produced, working with organic and fair-trade materials wherever possible. Many of Showpony's products are handmade in the studio, others are made by small fair-trade and organic organisations in India.
Inspired by honesty, poking fun and small details she creates products that are functional and beautiful.
