About

Pig + Fish is a 2 woman design studio based in Maine featuring useful art home decor products by Deb Gill + Nanako O’Donnell.

As lead designer, Deb brings with her a passion for useful art. Prior to starting Pig and Fish, her work was only available through art galleries in Maine + New York. The work was always functional, but large + priced for a select audience. A strong desire to create artful, well designed, + small hand crafted products for the home jump started the launch of our Pig and Fish line. We both firmly believe that art belongs in people’s lives + in their homes - not on a pedestal for a select few.

As lead designer, Deb brings with her a passion for useful art. Prior to starting Pig and Fish, her work was only available through art galleries in Maine + New York.

A strong desire to create artful, well designed, + small hand crafted products for the home jump started the launch of our Pig and Fish line. We both firmly believe that art belongs in people’s lives + in their homes - not on a pedestal for a select few.

We consider all our products to be useful art - work that is not only visual, but also functional. They are created with care + attention to detail where each item is our own unique design. We are involved in the fabrication of the entire piece - from cutting + sanding the wood, bending the metal, to making our own hooks - we even mix our own paint colors! With our useful art home decor products, you will find works that bridge art + function at an affordable price point.

We are often asked about our quirky business name - you can probably guess what the first question everyone asks is! No - neither one of us is a pig or a fish. To us, Pig and Fish symbolizes Inner Truth. Are you familiar with the I-Ching? It’s an ancient book of Chinese oracles + ‘pig and fish’ is taken from a passage in the I-Ching. The work that we create comes from that place of Inner Truth + speaks to the joy we seek when creating.

We find value in living a creative life + surrounding oneself with well crafted, useful works of art. We embrace color, function, + the work of the hand in all we create. It is our hope that the work will uplift + enrich your everyday.

❝Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.❞ ✒ William Morris
