From
the ground up! We
dig our own clay, our glazes are made from local materials,
and we wood-fire our finished stoneware pottery. We
are devoted to making good, useable pots, delighting
in the timeless skill of working in clay and promoting
the fulfilling life of creating with hand, eye and the
earth's materials.

Paul Stubbs extruder demonstration here on the Saturday 23rd of February
2008, organised by the Westcountry Potters Association, was a great success.
As a result we have decided to invite Paul back to hold a full 2 day workshop
on the subject, where participants will really be able to get stuck in and
make some unique extruded pots and other ceramic items. Watch this space for
the date of this exciting development at Ridge Pottery.
