Meet Our Makers

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

Carl Gray

The functional wheel-thrown pots that Carl creates are modest but highly
considered and precisely made, sometimes altered when wet, often with
spontaneous, energetic surface marks. Everything is conceived in the
knowledge that his work will be wood-fired.
