A hand-built decorative stoneware cat by North Yorkshire-based ceramicist Charlotte Salt. Known for her distinctive vernacular style, Salt’s work draws on mythology, folklore, and historical symbolism.
Using traditional hand-building techniques such as coiling, pinching, and slab construction, she creates sculptural pieces that embrace irregularity and spontaneity. Each form is layered with oxides and glazes, preserving the immediacy of the making process—visible in every brushstroke, impression, and surface texture.
Salt's work is shaped by a wide range of references, from William Blake and John Milton to early tapestries and Picasso’s ceramics. She works from both her home studio and as part of the AHH Studio Collective, continuing a lifelong connection with clay developed in her family’s pottery studio.
Origin: North Yorkshire, England
Period/Style: Vernacular ceramics
Material: Stoneware clay with layered glazes and oxides
Dimensions: As each piece is individually made, measurements vary. For guidance—please contact us for more information. 5.5cm height x 3cm width.
