Below are some examples of tableware I have made over the years. The shapes, handles, glazes and prints evolve slowly and you can see what I am currently making in my online shop.
Each piece is thrown and hand modelled with either red or black earthenware clay and the top temperature it is fired to is 1120 degrees C, any higher and the clay would melt. The ceramic is then vitrified and durable and holds the heat of your hot drink nicely.
My illustrations are reproduced as on-glaze decals and the prints are fired on top of the glazed surface making them permanent. Occasional dishwasher use is ok but I recommend hand-washing to prolong the life of the print.
