    This month’s guest is the brilliant @james_stead_ceramics 🎨 James is a ceramics teacher (who taught me at school!), a potter and more recently a finalist on series 6 of @potterythrow 🏺


    For more context on some of the things discussed from @potterythrow , you can watch all the series on @channel4 , and James also has some reels on a few of his creations

    It was so great to chat all about the pottery world, and to get a completely different perspective into mugs & the intricacies of how they’re made

    Every item talked about is quite astonishing in its craft so I’d highly recommend following along with the pictures as you listen for the full experience:

    1. Ray Gridley large blue mug

    2. @richmillerpots wood-fired orange mug

    3. Drip down mug (slip trailing) - pottery circle swap at Potfest

    4. A gift from @roynon_ceramics - red and white Voronoi mug

    5. @danielboyleceramics black & blue salt-fired mug

    6. Bonus item ✨ @clarewakefieldceramics bowl
