Description
Modern Craft Workshop is the North Cornwall studio of potter Rebecca Proctor. Thrown on a wheel using local stoneware clays, each piece is clean and simple with natural character. The pots are strong and functional, designed for use either at home or in a busy restaurant.
The pottery is made in a small workshop near Bude on the Cornwall and Devon border. This landscape where coast meets countryside is rich in natural resources and a range of local, raw materials go into the work. Many of the pots are created for outstanding restaurants, including The Clove Club in London and Inver in Scotland. The forms are modern, yet inspired by the traditions of country pottery; the bellied jug, pulled handle and spout are all features of traditional pots, but here they are updated in a subtle way.
