Armpits Pottery

Armpits Pottery I have been an enthusiastic amateur potter since retiring from work in 2016. It's been a steep learn

As well as taking my stall to local craft fairs I will also have a go at commission pieces for people. This can be challenging but that is most of the fun, to push the boundaries and learn new techniques.

Inspired by a re-watching the tagine episode in the last series of The Great Pottery Throwdown I had a go at one. It's 20cm wide bowl with charcoal stand. So here it is, just out of the kiln. Not quite your traditional north african lid shape, but a bit more Yorkshire. Could this be a new line, a T'Jean perhaps 😁
I'm at The Walkley Festival this Saturday in Ruskin Park, Sheffield, and I think I'll take it along.
Cheers, Nog.

This is a new idea this year rather than collecting stamps at each maker. Hopefully a bit more fun and inter-active.

I am now the proud owner of a brick mould! Thanks to my New Zealand friends, Joy and Graeme, who are travelling around the UK at the moment found this in a shop. What a top prezzie!!
Now to get some proper clay and have a go.
