Some of the bowls have had the slip drawn up vertically, some have had the slip wiped around the the bowl. All done with a vigour and an intended spontaneity. The foot rings on these bowls show a great chestnut colour where the clay body has been influenced by the sea shells that are used during firing. This common through the pieces I make.
Lidded caddies. Two small caddies with brushed and finger wiped white slip.
Finger wiped version has cobalt splashes and feldspar glaze.
The brushed version has cobalt and Red River silt splashes. The lid is covered in RRS and has a bamboo node handle, which is held in with a brass tack.
Stoneware: Approx: 9cm x 11cm

A few pots and words for a Monday Morning........
A great a week. A couple of trips over to St.Ives. A mid-week visit to watch the firing of the Soda kiln. The kiln was packed with St.Ives standard-ware and work by Jeff Oestreich. Jeff is an American Potter who has been in St.Ives for a month long residency. Jeff trained at the St.Ives Pottery in the late 60's under the supervision of Bernard Leach and the great William Marshall. The residency culminated in an exhibition of 77 pieces of work. A mixture of pieces bought over from the States and new work created at the Pottery. The preview was great fun on Saturday night, with the pots flying out the door with happy punters!!

A couple new pieces from last weeks firing.......
