Claire
Powell Pottery
I have been selling at Stroud
Farmers Market since the Autumn of 2006
I try and come to the market on the 2nd and 4th sat. each month but I
always make it once a month!
I love selling at the market in Stroud because the atmosphere is always
vibrant and I meet an interesting, eclectic mix of people, both fellow
stall holders and of course most importantly the regular customers, or
'market goers'.
Through the market I have sold pottery to a variety of places around the
world. People on holiday or local people who are going to visit relatives
or friends abroad and want to take a special gift, which has a special
meaning, as it is made in Gloucestershire and 'tourists' have happy
memories of their visit to the market in Stroud.
When I tell them that the item is unique and was made just five miles away
that often clinches the deal!
I know my pottery has gone from my stall in the Stroud market to America,
Germany and Stroud's twin town in France.
I have also spent time giving extra wrapping to a beautiful bowl which was
going as a wedding present to Australia.
I create each piece on my potters wheel in my garden workshop and studio
at Frocester Lodge.
The garden and view of the Cotswold hills around me is a great source of
inspiration.
After the pots have been fired in the kiln for the first time I take great
pleasure in looking at the form of each pot before deciding how best to
glaze it. I then take leaves and other plant forms from the garden and
hedgerow to form a unique glaze design. I then mix up a glaze, often in
shades of blue and green to echo nature.
No two pieces are ever quite the same as I only use each leaf or stem
once. Thus each individual piece is a work of art as well as being a
practicle item of pottery be it a bowl, jug or ceese dome.
