Current Work

I make stoneware individual pieces for the home as well as exhibition. These include large scale sculptural vessels and delicate centre pieces for an eye capturing living room, or dining table. ( prices range £30 - £450)
I have also branched out into a beautiful selected homeware range in 4 natural colours, specialising in platters and bowls. (prices range between £10 - £200)

By commission I have designed some large and smaller scale garden vessels which fit perfectly into the surrounding nature. (price on application)

Technical

The process starts with throwing the pot on the wheel to shape I desire. When the pot is nearly dry I will brush on the oxides, roughly, so to have varying thickness. A mixture of either black iron oxide and red iron oxide, or black iron oxide and copper carbonate, giving either a brown/black colour or green/black colour respectively.

The pots are then bisque fired to a temperature of 1000 degrees centigrade. The next process is to glaze them with a white glaze. I've tried many different white glazes to reach the one I use today. I needed one, which reacted and worked with the oxides underneath during the final firing.

To glaze the pots, I simple pour the glaze over, so to get different thicknesses of glaze, and so with the varying thicknesses of oxide and glaze the result should be a variation of colour and texture.

The final firing is taken to 1260 degrees centigrade.
