Christine Corthorn

Christine's ceramics are both ornamental and functional. They are organic in nature and inspired by water, its movement and its effect upon objects and surfaces. Designs and shapes found in water, sand, pebbles and rock formations are amongst the many starting points which influence her work. A limited palette of glazes and oxides are used to emphasis the surface textures and simple shapes which make up each original piece.

Katie Almond

Katie Almond is a ceramic artist from Rutland, creating charming hand-made pots inspired by nostalgia, pattern & love of drawing onto porcelain. Each piece is a canvas for decoration & collage as she combines drawings with found vintage ephemera, transfers, built up layers of porcelain and gold lustre. Nostalgic themes that she constantly revisits are afternoon tea, the seaside & gardening. Pots include jugs, cups, plates, watering cans and brooches.

Chloe Harford

Chloe from Devon makes ceramic puffins, penguins, seals and hares. They are all decorated with a distinctive �crackle glaze� which is achieved using a method called raku. This technique involves taking the pots hot from the kiln and placing them in a combustible material like sawdust. The glaze is caused to craze and the smoke penetrates giving the black lines. The random element of raku means each piece is unique.

JJ Vincent

JJ Vincent creates these wonderfully quirky hares from his studio in Cambridge. These handmade ceramics are full of character & charm. Each piece is different and has its own individual character.
