Happy heather. These wonky mugs are finished with a lovely deep merlot coloured glaze with a blue layered over the top. The result is a range of lovely purpley heather colours which put me in mind of the hills at the tail end of summer.

What's that lurking beneath the tea?

Neawwwwwm........ Plop

Bit of a late one today. I've been hiding away in the studio trying to take pretty pictures of some of my stoneware mugs. It's impossible to get across the feel of these guys in just a listing. They are so tactile you really need to pick them up and have a nice cup of tea from them to get a sense of them. The best I can do to put this across is a lot of photos. A mixture of studio pictures to show of the form and details in the magical reactive glazes.

Love opening up the kiln. These guys have gone through lots of colour changes already. They start out as a grey muddy colour when raw clay. After they've been thrown on the wheel they dry to a darker colour as the clay becomes leathery. Then, after trimming, they slowly dry through lighter shades to become almost white when they are bone dry.

Another tree mug today this time a Birch tree. I've gone for a nice blue glaze running over the top of a light red. I initially thought I could replicate the colours of the bark with stains and underglaze, bit it never worked out just right.......
