South Wales Potters

Jacky John

To create my pots I throw stoneware clay, on the potters wheel and use home made, high firing glazes in a reduction atmosphere to create beautiful, exciting finishes.

 The unpredictable nature of the gas kiln, enables me to be constantly excited by the serendipity of the end results. Even when you believe each firing process to be identical, just a small change in the environment can create a difference in the finish of the glaze, thus ensuring that every single piece is unique - magic!
