Framed Ceramic Plaques
A selection of the best pieces from the kiln are mounted in either oak or whitewashed Alder solid wood frames. Each piece is chosen for the clarity of the low relief texture and the interaction of the slips and glazes. Themes of British wildlife and landscape are depicted on each piece.
