This accessible book provides a sound practical knowledge of the main ceramic methods, ideal for both the novice and the practicing potter wanting to extend their technique. Following an introduction on choosing and preparing clay and setting up a workshop, the first section gives advice on inspiration and design. Comprehensive technique chapters follow on hand-building, making and using moulds, throwing, glazing and decoration, and kilns and firing. Over 25 step-by-step projects are brought to life with finished examples of contemporary work. These include a printed plate, a porcelain bowl and an undulating vase.
