berry bowls


Waiting to be finished.     These are selling steadily, thankfully!

These are 'my' shelves at St.Ffagan's pottery.

My work is on the three shelves and the "worktop".  With this much on show, it is selling well.

Gareth Lloyd (the potter who runs the business) makes the lamps and plaques.

The other pottery is Ewenny pottery ware. That has been run for 401 years and the 10th generation of Jenkinses is making now!  These designs have been made since 1912.

nice berry bowls! i have also found when your display is bigger in a shop you get noticed more and hence more sales.

Just love the Berry Bowls - are they for washing berries? Thanks for your comment on my blog. We had torrential rain during the night but just misty this morning.

Hi Gwynneth, Maybe we'll be able to buy your stuff in a few hundred years time, too. Though I doubt I'm likely to be around to place an order - maybe Hamish's great, grt grandsprogs.....who knows! When are you off to Eilean Siar?

They're for berries, or whatever you like!!

I'm traveling to Eilean Siar on the 6th of June for just under a week..boarding passes safely printed off!!
The first part of the journey will be with The Carpenter- which is nice as it is his birthday

I love pottery and have a small collection. I'd be tempted with your berry bowls, but my husband would not allow it as I have two already. Will have to see what else tempts me and i may treat myself one of these days.

oh and the salt pigs are so tempting too, but they are another thing where I am told to avert my gaze.

As I have said before, I lust after your berry bowls. Glad to hear they are a good seller for you.

Shaheen, you'll have to take him for a coffee and cake in the Court Cupboard! Abergavenny isn't too far for you!!

Your berry bowls are truly lovely. One would be very useful here in Nova Scotia I think, especially as they have the foots I like ;-)
