Tiny little piece - very happy! So delicate - such rich colour combinations.

Two Studio Pottery porcelain vessels made when he was Senior Lecturer at UWIC (University of Wales Insititure Cardiff) on the Ceramics course.  One is a second, the lustre piece, the other with incised decoration is a glaze test.

another early example, the seller thinks it was made in the 1970's & I tend to agree with him

Why does he want them to be usable and put things in them.,, ? They are just wonderful little pretty things to look at.

The three lidded pots were originally part of a one-off set of six but he hadn't found a buyer for them so was selling them off individually.

Post by Johners2000 March 15th 2017, 2:13 pm

Im not sure what this is - it may be a stopper for a larger piece - it looks a little unsteady on it's feet.

It is clearly by a very good potter and is clearly marked with an S

From Farnham Art In Clay last November. Thankfully arrived early, otherwise I’d never have got these red ones. They were a new test glaze. Swindell said he’d only made three and wasn’t really sure how he’d done it, so he might not be able to replicate it.

It was my first stop and I completely blew my budget, and could happily have spent it twice over.

he's a stand out potter in my opinion and I suspect his work will be very highly prized in the future

Yes, beautiful. He’s made that design for a while now but its the first time one of them has appealed to me. When I get bored of it I’ll let you know Excellent
He’s developed a new yellow glaze for this season.
