Process
John throws the main body of the mugs on the wheel, then creates the handles using ceramic extrusions. Each mug is bisque fired to 1120°C and decorated with transparent lead-free glaze, which has been hand-mixed with blends of coloured stains.
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.
