Meet Our Makers

All of our makers are members of the Craft Potters Association and each of them have a story to tell.

Rose Wallace

Rose’s work aims to comment upon us all as today's consumers. She employs original discarded objects as her starting point. Whether it is an 18th Century clay pipe, a 1950s jelly mould or a piece of contemporary plastic packaging, she believes the inherent value held within the transience of our collective domestic ephemera has a story to tell.
