Seedpod

Decorating pots is a world unto itself – and also a philosophical approach I haven’t quite got behind. My concession to decoration is to play with resist - masking areas of the form before glazing so that some of the vessel remains bare. This led to beautiful echoes of seedpod patterns, and thus a collection was born. Grey stoneware with black slip and oatmeal glaze. The pots photographed here have all been sold and while I plan to explore this technique in new ways in the New Year I’d be delighted to take orders if you see something specific you like.
