Woodfired Shino Mug by Linda Unsworth

Woodfired Shino Mug by Linda Unsworth
Hand Thrown in Pembrokeshire, Wales
Approximate measurements: 8cm H x 9.5cm ø (13cm incl. handle), 300-400ml

Rustic woodfired stoneware mug with a classic form and wide handle, glazed with shino creating a rich depth and warming appearance. From luxiorous red tones to peachy orange, milky stone greys tones on some. As well as plenty of fly ash and complex granite inclusions creating an interesting natural speckling - it has a soft metallic shine, tactile feel with scores and dimples - making the piece a joy to handle and use.

Each handmade and unique, therefore slight variations in shape, size will occur. Handwash recommended.

Based in North Pembrokeshire, producing work from her home studio. 
Linda is a self taught potter, who enjoys the meditative experience that’s created by working with such natural elements as raw clay, glazes and the rhythm of her momentum wheel. Producing beautiful wood fired ceramics that really highlight this long process leaving visible traces of flame flashes and fly ash on her pots. Her approach to the form and style of her work is inspired by her natural surroundings and informed by Eastern aesthetics through traditional Japanese & Korean pottery and philosophy and her love of tea drinking.
