A range of table and garden-ware alongside "one off" pieces which explore the more extreme effects of long anagama firings.
Work generally available from:
My studio at Bettiscombe
Bridport Market on Saturday mornings.
The Devon Guild of Craftsmen . Bovey Tracey , Devon.
All pots are 'once' fired in an Anagama type kiln to 1300+ degrees Centigrade. Simple Shino and local wood ash glazes are further enhanced by residual ash from the firebox. Salt is added to the back of the kiln producing heavy 'orange peel' glazes.
