• Lucienne de Mauny - wonderful pottery - individual designs from Lucienne who makes all of her pottery here in Wallingford
• Charlotte Storrs - "Rustic elegance": groggy stoneware with simple surface decoration and white or muted glazes
• Hilary Fehr - Hilary Fehr studied ceramics for her degree at Bretton Hall in Yorkshire. Having spent 20 years teaching abroad in Egypt, Morocco and France she has returned to England and set up her own pottery studio in Abingdon. From there she produces functional stoneware pots, mostly thrown on the wheel but also handbuilt. She enjoys making all her own glazes and experimenting with different clay bodies. A particular interest is Berber symbolism which is reflected in much of the decoration on her pots. Hilary's pottery is stoneware - which is fired to a temperature of 1260 c so it is very robust. With a heat diffuser it can be placed on the hob for cooking or in the oven. It is also safe for microwave cooking and in the dishwasher.
