Ceramic Houses

Sandra Smith

 

Stephen and Sandra met whilst studying for a Dip AD in Glass and Ceramics at Stourbridge college of Art (many moons ago). They married and started a pottery workshop. Sandra has found inspiration in the architecture of our lovely towns and villages. The houses are individually cut from slabs of rolled out stoneware clay, the doors, windows and surface decoration are impressed using their own hand-made stamps. The houses are then fired and finally hand-painted and sealed .
