Mum gave me the blue pieces, which belonged to my grandmother.
And the black jug was one I bought at the seconds store at the Wedgwood Factory in the UK in 1997. The clay they used back then used to gundge up the machines. It took about 3 hours to clean the machines of the old clay. So they stopped making pottery with the black clay until they found a clay which didn't do that.
The new clay they use is darker and isn't as sticky on the machines. Very cool.
Writer, poet, artist and prolific reader.... that's me.
I'm a collector of books, vinyls, coin purses and strange handbags... that's me too.
Otherwise, I love...
