Meet Our Makers

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

Jill Shaddock

Fascinated by process and enhancing a technique associated with mass production, she explores multi-layered slipcasting to create unique objects. These take the form of individual pieces and collections of curated works, which blur the boundaries between the usable and the purely decorative. With a minimal aesthetic, considered forms and refined colour palette, the work is highly tactile and the considered simplicity gradually draws attention to the subtle details.

James and Tilla Waters

James and Tilla Waters create their pieces from a studio in Mid-Wales. Carefully considering where hands hold pieces and edges meet mouths, their forms have classic clean lines with beautifully balanced proportions.
