About Us
Pogofandango create quirky and colourful laser cut greetings cards, gifts and wedding stationery. Living in rainy but beautiful Cornwall, we cannot help but be inspired by our surroundings, and many of our designs reflect elements of the sea or nature.
The name "Pogofandango" was originally our pub quiz team name. Needless to say, we never actually won a quiz, but had many laughs watching the landlady attempt to pronounce it! We were called "pongo", "dogofanpongo", "doogofoogo", and many more, we don't think she ever did get it right!

Pogofandango is a mother and daughter run business based in Penryn, Cornwall. Gill and Emma started the business after hunting high and low for unique, affordable and beautiful wedding stationery for Emma’s wedding, without success.

She has worked in art and design for over 20 years and has taught in several educational environments. Her work has been exhibited in galleries throughout Cornwall and Kent.
