Oak Leaf Plates & Bowls - Steven James Will

£55
Size:
Quantity:

Slip cast porcelain plates and bowls pressed with Suffolk oak leaves and highlighted with an indigo pigment, by Suffolk potter, Steven James Will.

Steven Will’s workshop is located on the Suffolk Coast, with much of his work rooted in the local landscape. He often sources natural material (mud, clays, wood ash) to mix with the porcelain clay, to develop a colour palette of the Suffolk Coast.

The leaves which decorate each hand-thrown plate and bowl are the ancestors of those mighty oaks which took ships to sea.

Suffolk was long famous for the stout timber of its magnificent oaks, and Woodbridge situated upon a creek and near the forest district afforded a good centre for ship-building. Sir Francis Drake had fighting ships built in Woodbridge.

English Oak

“The ruling majesty of the woods, the wise old English oak holds a special place in our culture, history, and hearts. It supports more life than any other native tree species in the UK; even its fallen leaves support biodiversity”. (The Woodland Trust)
