Roger Cockram Ceramics

Gallery and showroom showing four kinds of high quality ceramics
- practical, attractive kitchen wares; individual pieces on themes
of water, animals and plants; unusual candlesticks and decorative
figures plus prints of paintings by Ros Cockram.
Each of Roger's 'special' pieces is is thrown on the potter's
wheel and then partly dried. Then many hours are spent modeling
and painting the work, in a variety of ways, before it is ready
to fire. The pots are taken to a very high temperature in a slightly
smoky atmosphere in order to make them strong and to develop
the unique range of colours and surfaces.
