I am a firm campaigner for British, hand crafted goods, and I always try to source gifts and things for my home from fellow crafters.
I make my ceramics using hand building techniques, particularly ‘slabbing’ where you roll out clay (kind of like pastry) and then use it to make all sorts of things. There is almost no end to the things which you can create with clay, it is just so versatile. Glazing is always exciting, as you never know what effects will have taken place each time you open the kiln!
I try to make items to suit all budgets, and just LOVE making ceramics. I usually try to make items which are usable as well as nice to look at!

Full description
This Trinket Dish was made in my studio in Bristol, and is part of my 'Hearty Range'.
I have made one for my own home, and it sits on the wash stand in our bathroom, I use if for hair bobbles, hair clips, necklaces, bracelets and any other small items I’d rather not lose! It would make a useful gift for yourself, or a loved one.
It was made using clay cut-outs of hearts of 2 sizes. Each piece was made individually, and I then stuck the sides onto the base using ‘slip’ (clay glue!)
The dish was then fired to 980'C.
The main glaze is a stoneware glaze called 'marcasite', I covered the dish in this glaze and then 'washed back' the outside, leaving the natural white-ish colour of the clay showing. Finally I glazed various hearts in red, blue, green and yellow. The dish was then fired again, this time to a whopping 1220'C.
Size- it is 6cm tall, 19cm x 13.5 wide, the base has been covered in felt to protect any delicate surfaces.
I use recycled packaging where I can, and post as promptly as possible, and always within 3 working days.
There are many more items in the 'Hearty Range'. Please look at my shop to see some more!
