About

Tableware, meant to be used.

Everything here is thrown to be picked up every day rather than kept on a shelf, which decides the weight, the glaze and the handle.

Clay comes from a supplier two counties away, glazes are mixed in the studio from raw materials, and each piece is fired twice. The kiln is electric, the studio is a converted garage, and the dog is called Bisque.

Tell me roughly what you are after and I will be honest about whether I can make it, when, and what it will cost. Dinner sets take three months.
