Process
John throws the jug on the wheel and adds details to the clay using a roulette wheel and an impression tool, which create the collection’s signature marks. The piece is bisque fired at 1120C, before being decorated with a lead-free earthenware glaze.
Process
Creating tableware that contemporises traditional 18th century creamware designs, Derbyshire-based ceramicist John Wheeldon draws inspiration from early pioneers in the field, such as Josiah Wedgewood, Thomas Whieldon and William Greatbach. To decorate his work, John has manufactured his own specialist tools, such as roulettes and handle dies, based on examples found in museums originating from the 1700s.
