Canal Works

Pots that are meant to be used until they break

Thrown and glazed in one room by one person, and taught in the same room three evenings a week.

What is on the shelf

The shop is whatever survived the last firing, which is never the same twice.

How a pot happens

Four weeks from clay to shelf

  1. 01

    Thrown

    On a Tuesday, usually a dozen at once so the batch matches.

  2. 02

    Dried and turned

    A week of waiting, then the foot is cut.

  3. 03

    Fired once

    To nine hundred degrees, which makes it hard enough to glaze.

  4. 04

    Glazed and fired again

    To twelve hundred and sixty. About one in eight does not survive.

The shop is open Thursday to Saturday

There is no online shop. What is there is there.
