Here’s another new Yunomi fresh from the kiln, this is the Saltburn ash glaze over white slip on a black clay body.

Drawing towards the end of our holiday now and I’m looking forward to being back in my little studio. In the meantime here are a few photos from our visit on Monday to The Leach Pottery, including the Japanese climbing kiln which was built by Bernard Leach and Shoji Hamada in 1920 and which was the first of its kind in the Western world.

Bottle vase with limpet decoration. This Vase is a practice piece to inform part of a range I am producing for the @theleachpottery The work being made explores materials I have gathered during trips to St Ives and the surrounding area. The glaze on this pot has been made with clay I dug from the cliffs at Godrevy head and silt from the red river mouth there. The form of the pot is based on a discarded Buoy I found and the limpet shells that I used to make moulds for the decoration were gathered by my son Wilf along the shore line at Hayle. The clay body is from Dobles clay pits just a little further up the coast at St Agnes I have been working on this glaze for the last couple of months and it’s finally starting to come good. It’s a clay heavy ash glaze as I wanted the clay and the silt to be the focus and the ash to take a back seat. The glaze has lovely milky flecks and sections close to a creamy Nuka as it gets thinner but the ash retains the fluidity and pooling. The glaze breaks to a golden brown toast on the proud details which is contrasted well by the milky tones surrounding them. The glaze has movement and swathes of deep transparent greens throughout. #ashglaze #buoy #leach #leachpottery #leachpotterystives #stives #cornwall #pottery #vase #limpet #green #glaze #pottersofinstagram #craft #art #artistsoninstagram #bottle #bottlevase #wildclay #clay #digyourown #handmade #natureinspired #photography #drip (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGH_S80j1f7/?igshid=51y5xh4ghxbi

Yunomi Ash glaze with raw ash and water stayed around the foot ring. The ash and water spray adds a different texture and colouration but it also interferes with the glazing line and makes the glaze more fluid causing a satisfying dribble #ashglaze #yunomi #cup #leach #leachpottery #ash #ashglaze #green #greentea #tea #teatime #drink #hold #use #pot #pottery #crofrpottery #northyorkshire #thirsk #rainton #saltburn #saltburnbysea #wildclay #wildglaze #makeyourown (at Rainton) https://www.instagram.com/p/CarSbVTgfFb/?utm_medium=tumblr
