Ceramics by Alex

Alex Harrington has been working with clay ever since she was inspired after taking an online pottery course during lockdown 2020. When you visit her studio at The Stables you will be able to see and buy finished ceramic pieces, as well as discover the process behind them. In a corner of the studio, the potters wheel is situated where most of the making takes place. Glazing is then done by hand, and fired in the on-site kiln. Alex also runs a variety of workshops, where you can get hands on yourself.
