Handmade stoneware · since 2017

Everyday pottery, thrown slowly by hand.

Northfold is a two-person ceramics studio. We make mugs, bowls and plates for daily use — glazed in small batches and fired in our own kiln.

How a piece is made

Each piece passes through our hands about a dozen times over three weeks. Small variations in shape and glaze are part of the work.

01

Throwing

Local stoneware clay is wedged and thrown on the wheel, then left to firm up overnight before trimming and adding handles.

02

Bisque firing

Once bone dry, pieces go into the kiln at 950 °C. This makes them strong enough to glaze without falling apart.

03

Glaze & fire

We mix our own lead-free glazes and fire to 1240 °C. Everything is food-safe, dishwasher- and microwave-safe.

Current pieces

We restock on the first Saturday of each month. Most items are one-offs or come in runs of fewer than twenty.

Kind words

From people who took a class or use our pieces every morning.

“The taster evening was the most relaxing two hours of my month. My bowl is lopsided and I love it.”

— Class student

“We ordered a set of plates for the café. Two years of daily use and not a single chip.”

— Café owner

“Patient teachers, a warm studio and good tea. I signed up for the course straight after.”

— Course participant
