JP The Potter

Unique handmade pieces, more specifically wheel thrown. Made using a range of porcelain and stoneware clays and a variety of glazes to give different effects.

I first ventured into the world of pottery in late 2019, since then the pandemic has given me the space and time to practice my craft and refine my work. Lockdown has done wonders in my self discovery process, and have performed tests and experiments resulting in an array different results to assist me in finding my signature style. At present time I've found a love for porcelain, carving and nerikomi. Nerikomi is an artistic technique for creating Japanese pottery agateware. The name derives from the traditional technique of creating patterns with coloured clay.All processes are manual, I stain the clay different colours myself which gives me the control of finding specific tones that work for me. I hope you enjoy having a look at my products as much as I've enjoyed making them!
