All Ceri's pots are thrown from a ball of clay on the potter's wheel, individually decorated, glazed and twice fired so every piece is unique, with various pattern ranges that are all part of the same 'family' of bold, crisp pattern and colour.

Your Story £85
Your Story can be found on [email protected]. This piece is in recognition of Hannah Frank, a Glasgow artist who used pen and ink in her work.
The piece from the artist's perspective, is how we tell our stories, what bits are important to us, what we leave out. And of course the importance of a close confidant.
The print is open edition, on Japanese mulberry paper using Cranfield Inks. The paper itself has long fibres giving it the strength despite its delicate look.
Please DM Saira on [email protected] for more information or look at her videos to see the process.
