Monday morning = new pots....

Tea cup / Yunomi: With brushed white slip, Red River silt and copper splashes.

Stoneware: 7.5cm x 8cm

£17.00

Drinking bowl: Falmouth Clay with finger wiped white slip and copper splashes.

7cm x 11.5cm

£NFS

This bowl is part of a small collection made for my friend, Kathryn Tyler. I dug some clay from the foundations of her new build. After a time of processing and testing the clay I have produced  a collection of bowls and beakers for Kathryn to use.

A real pleasure to take the raw material from the ground on which the house that the pots will be used in was built. This idea taps into everything I hold dear when it comes to the process of making pots, taking a base element and turning it into objects to have, hold and enjoy.

Fresh pots

A few images of some of the new Lidded Caddies for next months show in Honiton, Devon.

These pics show the white slip and Red River silt application.

Late night sess....

The workshop looked productive last night as I walked out, so I thought I would take a quick pic to share....

Foot rings

 A couple of pics of the new Yunomi with focus on the foot rings. After a period of not stamping my work I have started to stamp again. Although its not always possible on some forms as I feel that it would spoil the look and feel of the objects.

More Yunomi fresh from the wheel.......

10 of each of the other shapes. One with a tall foot ring and a tapered version which will have a shallow foot ring. They will end up around 8cm x 8cm

And 20 became 18

Turned the foot rings on twenty teacups, well eighteen in the end after a couple of fatal mishaps.
Slipped and decorated them with Red River Silt and white slip......
Fingers crossed they will fire up well as part of the next firing.

Autumn is on its way........
