Kirsty Adam’s work is both functional and holds aesthetic meaning, retaining the spontaneity and delicacy intrinsic to making on the potters’ wheel. A Japanese comb tool is used to create and enhance the throwing lines. Her Icelandic collection is the culmination of a research trip to Iceland to express the ‘otherworldliness’ of the landscape.
Kirsty is an award-winning ceramicist currently working from her studio in Newcastle upon Tyne. She originally trained at Brighton Art College and then on the potters’ wheel in Japan. She has developed a personal approach to throwing on the wheel using porcelain clay, to produce unique pieces for the home.

Eva Radulova is a London based designer-maker working under the name ‘ERADU Ceramics’.
Ever since experimenting with clay in her art classes at school, Eva knew that ceramics were the creative direction she wanted to take. Having focused her studies on ceramics and Fine Art at university, there was nowhere else but Stoke-on-Trent to hone her craft and complete her Master’s Degree.
Maintaining the hand-crafted as well as mass appeal to her work has been pivotal in Eva’s design process, and her inspiration has played an important role in achieving this. Concentrating on everyday objects for her graduate collection, and combining these with traditional techniques and reinvention, her distinctive vessels were born.
Although she experiments with terracotta and some other clay, she loves the purest white colour of bone china and the endless possibilities of colouring the porcelain. The challenge she seeks is the reinvention of shapes in the melting point of old and new.
