New pottery arrives

We've some wonderful new pottery come into the shop today, gorgeous glazes! Here's a little bit of information about the potter, Alison Randle.

Alison has recently returned to an early passion for pottery and has been training at The Lansdown Pottery in Stroud where she has been able to develop her interest in glazes, especially the Oriental glazes.

Some, such as the green celadon, are used singly and simply whilst others such as Takeshi, titanium and copper reds are applied in layers to give less predictable results. Every piece is unique.

The pieces Alison creates are designed to be used - function is as important as form.
