Stormy Pottery

by Wendy Page

All my work is hand built with a combination of coils, press moulds and slab methods.

Each pot is then porcelain slipped, burnished and bisque fired to a temperature of 990ºc. Pots are decorated using a variety of resists, before they are individually smoke fired in either sawdust or paper to produce their stormy patterns.

The pots are then painstakingly cleaned and finally dried and polished. All these processes take approximately 4 weeks to complete. Each piece of work is unique, as the smoke firing process produces a different pattern every time.
