Charlotte Storrs Stoneware www.charlottestorrs­stoneware.co.uk



I am a Dutch potter, working from my garden studio in Oxfordshire. I make functional stoneware, pots, plates and bowls which can be used on a daily basis. Everything is thrown on the wheel and each piece is unique. I decorate the leather­hard clay with patterned ceramic rollers and apply a white glaze, made for me in Ireland, for a simple, rustic and elegant appearance. Vibrant food colours stand out beautifully against the white ceramic. With many of my pots I use akebia for handles. Akebia is a vine which I discovered during a trip to Japan to visit potters. It is a strong natural material and each strand is different. All work is oven and dishwasher proof apart from pieces with akebia. I usually make to order but occasionally have work in stock. I sell from the pottery, through shops, galleries and my website, and send orders within the UK, to Europe and the States. Do come and visit the pottery when you are in the area, but please ring beforehand. It will be lovely to see you!
