Shannon Bartlett-Smith - Short Mug - Charcoal / Oatmeal
Handcrafted by Shannon Bartlett-Smith, these shorter mugs are made from clay sourced from St Agnes, where the local pit has been run by the same family for three generations. This clay was historically supplied to Bernard and Janet Leach, notable figures in British ceramics. Upon close inspection, the clay reveals a blend of slate, quartz, iron, and other minerals, which become visible after firing. The mugs are fired to stoneware temperatures and finished with crystalline and satin glazes, highlighting the inherent characteristics of the material. Made in Cornwall, the mugs embody a studio-based approach to contemporary British ceramics, combining traditional materials with precise craftsmanship.
