Crafts CouncilDirectoryAlma Boyes CeramicsTablewareAboutTableware collections explore the historic technique of agateware prominent in the UK in 17th & 18th century industrial ceramics, notably Josiah Wedgewood. I use a combination of coloured clays that I prepare myself with oxides and stains to my own recipes. I use a porcelain type stoneware body, fired to stoneware, which I individually throw and turn, inside and out to accentuate the agate surfaces further. The colour combinations are inspired by those used for the bird vessels.Alma Boyes CeramicsBrighton and Hove, EnglandAgate Tableware, Photo: Karen NorquayMixed Colour Set'Crow' Tableware, Photo: Karen NorquayAgateware White, Black & PinkRose Stone, Black, White & Orange Tableware, Photo: Karen NorquayAgateware Dinner Plate 24.5cm, Side Plate 19cm, Cup 8.5cmx8.5cm'Blackbird' Tableware, Photo: Karen NorquayAgateware White, Black & Orange'Blackbird' Tableware, Photo: Karen NorquayAgateware White, Black & OrangeTablewareAboutTableware collections explore the historic technique of agateware prominent in the UK in 17th & 18th century industrial ceramics, notably Josiah Wedgewood.
