This week we added a small dove grey mug to our Neo range. These mugs are for those who like a smaller mug (8cm, 250ml volume). This mug has an inner and outer dove grey glaze application with our white crackled glaze dripping over the rim for a little glaze twist. Minimalist meets rustic.

We have also added a couple of larger mugs in the matte charcoal with blue iron rim, some textured planters with dove grey and white crackle overlay also came out of the kiln, see in new wares down below.

Other News

We tested a few more glazes in our Neo range last week, with the aim to develop a few blue and green matte glazes that work in combination with earthy neutrals we have so far developed.

A bigger bisque firing to come this week and a new glaze unveiling this time next week. We are currently building up wares for a market at Heide in early October.

This week features a couple of plates with imprints of my nanas crocheted doilies. Nanas grandchildren would receive these doilies at Christmas, fair to say they werent a big hit in our early teens but now carry cherished childhood memories and a respect for the delicate work of a craftswoman. Here we pay homage to slow, pleasurable pastimes.

Fresh from the Kiln The Weekly Edit 08 - Oct 24th, 2023 It’s been a bit of a slow return to the studio. In our short history of preparing for markets the week after is a bit of a go slow: unpacking, returning product to shelves, thinking about how the market went and what we can do better next time. Being pretty new to the market scene we don’t have a lot of expectation, it is more about connecting with people and getting ideas and really just playing at this point. We created a little...

A small kiln unload with 4 plates and 3 large planters taking up most of the kiln space. New glaze combination on the planter below. A bit of old gold over a chocolate brown base glaze with a carved and textured finish on this large 18cm planter. The planter combines well with green and bronzed foliage as shown below with an aged Euphorbia. This litte stack of 4 plates came out of...

Fresh from the Kiln The Weekly Edit 06 - Sept 24th, 2023 Lots of beautiful pieces out of the kiln this week. Very happy with some of the variations of our Neo matte glaze, a beautiful two tone caramel tan and chocolate on a couple of mugs. Perfect for hot chocolate, cappuccinos and lattes. A large bowl using our matte charcoal glaze with a glossy ocean cover glaze would make a lovely special occasion gift. I’m loving everything rustic at the moment, it feels as if the world is running at a...
