Caroline and Stephen Atkinson Jones (Bexhill on Sea, Sussex, England,
UK)
http://www.atkinsonjones.co.uk/
(Slip-cast pottery designed according to the "Golden Section" and the
"Logarithmic Spiral." The pieces are decorated in brilliant lustre and
metallic glazes.)
Dameon Lynn (Studio Pot) (Cardiff, Wales, UK)
http://www.studiopot.co.uk/
(The artist incorporates wheel thrown sculptural elements influenced by
the work of Hans Coper and hand carved studies of Stone Age implements.
He works the surfaces of his pieces to create textures, colour and
depth. While he used ancient smoke-fired techniques in his earlier
work, he now favours stoneware temperatures for the permanence this
method affords.)
Amberley Working Museum (UK)
http://www.amberleymuseum.co.uk/
(Clay pipe maker David Cooper and potter Faye George-Sheppard are
amongst the craftsmen/women working at this "living history museum.)
(Click the drop-down menu arrow beside "Browse Amberley", then select
the "About the Craftspeople" link to click. Once at the new page,
click ths drop-down arrow again and select "The Clay-pipe Maker" or
"The Potter.") (I think Faye is shown on the site's index page using
an antique jolly-machine to make a flowerpot. Elsewhere there are
photos of her pulling pots, trimming, and decorating a bisqued pot with
cobalt oxide.)
Rex Key (Broseley Clay Pipes) (Broseley, Shropshire,UK)
http://www.broseleypipes.co.uk/
(Rex makes clay pipes for sale, and demonstrates his art at the
Broseley Clay Pipe Museum, Southorn Works, Broseley.) (Amateur website,
but some interesting photos of the last clay pipe works in the town to
close, which happened in 1957)
Richard Lees (Tinder Box) (Clay smoking Pipes) (New Zealand)
http://www.tinderbox.co.nz/clay_pipes.html
(Clay pipe-maker and clay pipe historian.) (Present-day clay pipe
makers market much of their product for bubble-blowing.)
