Aimed both at the novice and the already practising potter, this accessible handbook provides all the knowledge and practical advice you need to create a wide range of ceramic objects.
The first section gives an insight into ideas and techniques for Design. Chapters follow on Handbuilding, Making and Using Moulds, Throwing, Glazing and Decoration, and Kilns and Firing.
A selection of projects that beautifully reflect the illustrated techniques are included in each chapter. Ideas range from a thrown cup and saucer, a hand-formed interpretation of the human figure, a press-moulded jug with sprigged decoration and slipcast vessels with the distinctive crackled surface of raku.
