Biography
Sarah makes small batch slipware in her Herefordshire studio at Eastnor Pottery, near Ledbury.
Designs, include a unique selection of bathroom and kitchen wares.
“My approach to potting is relaxed and playful, every piece is treated with an excitement and love of the material, I hope this translates through to the finished pieces.
Cups and bowls are wheel thrown, I slab build individual soap dishes and flower bricks and press-mould plates. Slips and colourful underglazes are brushed and splattered. Sgraffito designs are freely etched into the clay, making the pieces pleasingly tactile. All creating happens at the wet clay stage and I finish every piece with a simple lead-free glaze.
Little pieces of art for your home, to use and cherish.”
