It’s all go glazing for 12th to 14th June where you will find us in .potters marquee H. Here I am adding splash patterns to ramen bowls and butter dish plates. I love the random shapes. It can be rather like staring at clouds, what do you see in the third picture?

If you happen to be in Farnham, then you must visit the New Ashgate Gallery and explore their beautifully curated Spring Craft Collection 2025: Handcrafted Art for a New Season. We are honoured to be invited to be part of the event, and have produced two new tableware collections exclusively for the event.

The inspiration behind our two new collections came from a recollection of our visit, in Spring many years ago, to the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove in Kyoto. During our walks through the soaring stalks of bamboo, we experienced a light Spring rain, and we were in awe of the glistening droplets of rain against the bamboo shoots - A tranquil calmness amidst the gentle rustling of bamboo leaves.

The collection in green we named Chikurin (竹林) from the bamboo groves and the collection in blue we named Kosame (小雨) from the light rain. Both collections, in unison, we named Spring Light Rain At The Bamboo Grove - Chikurin ni haru no kosame (竹林に春の小雨).

Both tableware collections consist of dinner & side plates, ramen bowls, pasta & cereal bowls, salt pigs and oil pourers, cups & beakers..... amongst others we are developing for the gallery. The two new collection are only available for purchase (and commission) via the gallery.

Very proud of our two new collections.
