I'm a studio ceramicist making simple but striking functional pots in stoneware and porcelain. I produce small batches from my studio in East Sussex, handmade with great care. I’m inspired by the Ashdown Forest nearby, and a passion to explore colour and form. I celebrate the meditative healing of craftmaking for all, particularly in challenging times…..

This large, elegant, stoneware jug , with its cutaway rim and arching handle was inspired by Jugs used for libations in the ancient world.
It has been finished in stoney smooth verdigris green and turquoise glazes. These have been poured and layered over a burnt umber coloured clay body, giving beautiful, mottled and wave like variations in the surface……as if the pot had just emerged from the sea….
The jug is lined with a shiny celadon glaze.
Height 29.5cm X 22cm including the handle
This piece was hand thrown, on the wheel, turned , glazed and fired in oxidation to 1220 degrees. It has subtle variations in colour and is definitely one of a kind….
Little Doves of Peace
Featured
This Stoneware vase is one of several inspired by the forms and glaze made by the ancient Egyptians. This particular pot is reminiscent of amphorae or storage jars from the ancient world, with its handles and tapered foot.
The colour they discovered thousands of years ago is thought to be the first synthetic pigment, from a particular combination of locally found minerals and copper carbonate …its a magnificent almost luminous colour and was sacred to the ancient Egyptians, associated with the sky and the river Nile and symbolised the universe, creation and fertility.
The glaze has been dipped and poured giving beautiful wave like variations, and where the cream lining glaze meets the blue there are spectacular mottled variations at the mouth of the vase.
