Pottery near Pinware NL (191 Result(s))

Our pottery has always been wonderfully functional; with a few frivolous pieces, too.But we wanted more than superb design and function. We wanted a celebration of colour and at the same time have each piece instantly recognizable as a Bailey-Brown.So - we experimented. From 1980 to 1986. Taking detailed notes as we tried countless combinations of glazes and stains, fired slowly to ensure the deepest saturation of colour. And then, one morning, we opened our kiln, peered in at our latest experiment, and smiled. With 23 ingredients, applied in 6 separate glazes and stains, we'd finally achieved the look we wanted. A look with enduring appeal.Joy and love are crafted in each item that comes from Bailey Brown Pottery.

Pictured, are the three main elements of the process that takes a lump of clay through to a finished pot. Formed on the wheel, glazed in the spray booth, and finally, fired in the kiln. But the process is more than that. It starts the first time you sit at a potters wheel with that lump of clay. It's a connection with, and a feel for the clay. You need a teacher that can guide you through the frustrations and disappointments, getting you to the point where you develop some skill and your own technique. I had Terrie MacDonald do that for me and am forever grateful. Thanks also to Pamela Bailey-Brown for her teachings and for sharing her wisdom. So it's a long process and doesn't end when you take the finished pot out of the kiln. To me the process ends when someone actually wants what you made. That makes pottery a win-win endeavour. I get the joy of making the pot, and the joy and satisfaction from someone putting it to use.

Moligian fell in love with salt glazing the first time he saw the dazzling blues, greens and golds of salt fired pots being unloaded from the student-built kiln at Sheridan College, where he had enrolled and chosen . After graduating he set up a small studio in the Caledon Hills outside Toronto where he built his very own salt kiln and produced a line of fine signature pieces that earned him a good living and an outstanding reputation for well crafted forms with clean stong lines and decorated with the blues, greens and golds of metal oxides in combination with the pebbled surface of salt glaze.

I first made pots in the old farmhouse on Lindgren Road in 1975, and later my wife Cathy and I established Lindgren Pottery in a new studio and showroom next to our farmhouse in 1981. The showroom here is open to the public through the year. We used to sell to shops and galleries as well as exhibit at craft shows, but for many years, our work has only been available at our showroom here in the woods outside Huntsville.Seven years ago we built a new studio and then moved the showroom downstairs to the ground floor - the space is twice as big as before. If you haven't visited in a while we're sure you will appreciate the 'new' showroom.
