Fired and finished





Remember these fine pitchers? They're made by Alex McErlain and decorated by textile artist Alice Kettle.

Here they are fresh from the kiln.

You can see them at earlier stages during their production by clicking here.

Wow. Lovely pitcher. I love it that sgraffito allows you to take a traditional form and make a contemporary statement on it.

'Interesting juxtaposition' yep, that's the phrase, from years ago.....
I find it fantastic that this goes on, have you got something in mind?
What marks would you like to see on who's work??

But is that the point ?
