take a look, I will be updating the movie page from time to time, and my online shop will be active soon.

Thanks Nigel.

Getting ready for the firing, the pots are stacking up, these are a board of creamers ready to be slipped. Lots more images to follow

It's been a busy week in the pottery, I've been making teapots and vases, these have been made in stoneware clay, I know I know, what you will say, Nigel has gone over to the dark side. I have always though that the pots I make should fulfill the function I intened them to, and for a long time now I have been worried about the teapots and vases I have been making, in that however well glazed a earthenware pot is, the body is still a bit pourus.I will post photos when they are fired and you can decided if I,ve done the right thing.

Well it's been some time since I posted on my blog. A combination of sheer laziness and technical problems, some of which have been sorted out and some that I just can't seem to shake off.

It's been a bit of a slow start to the year, so cold and so much snow.Workshop to cold and clay frozen, does not make a good combination for creativity, but now it's back to full time potting. Lots of new ides coming through, and I'm really looking forward to the next firing.

It's been a busy week, making pots for the next firing, more pics of the pots next week. In the evenings I have been updating my website,take a look www.nigellambertpotter.co.uk still has a few tweeks to sort out . The bread oven I am building is going well started to cover the whole frame with clay last night.

I found this video while looking around on youtube the other day, it still sends shudders down my spine when I hear it, reminding me of of a wonderful weekend selling pots at Earth and Fire, Rufford . But I'm sure they have got the date wrong, can it really be 1997 !! no that carn't be right.

Finding a bit of time at last so here are a few photos of the pots that came out of the last firing,It's allways the way that after a few days of looking at the work you start to see all the things I would like to change,O well that's pottery.
