Was this painted Darren?

My first shift as a studio tech officially on Friday - it was so much fun. Here’s some marbled clay saucers I completed. Hyper focused production is something I am yet to master!

Your absolute all time favourite!

Another AJ ALLEN piece. This time a 60s/70s bar stool.
So wholesome to connect with my heritage & family like this. My thanks to an American friend who spotted it on eBay. If you have an AJ Allen piece of furniture - I’d love to hear from you!

Omg! 🤩🤩🤩

Ahh this is great to see! Thanks for sharing. Have been exploring sgraffito in my ceramics, but it’s so ace to see it as a surface finish 👌🏼

Thank you Geoff!

Series of incised horizontal lines, representing staves for music notations? Some of which was seen pencilled in with notations rather than carved - using stone as a practice sheet perhaps whilst waiting on steps? If these walls could sing?

Sgraffito:

A form of plaster decoration where the surface is scratched away to reveal the layer beneath, often in a contrasting colour.

The ginormous Roman Snails, helix pomatia, found at North Leigh Roman Villa - a popular delicacy of Romano-British cuisine, brought in over c.1,800 years ago! #snail #ecology #history #archaeology #cuisine

We have some excellent abstract/summaries for the WtPTwo2026 event and you will soon find out what a great day this will be. We have had only one contribution from an architectural practice, and this is surprising given how many of you are conservation accredited and specifying lime -do get in touch

This chap was spotted over Xmas, close to Kilchoan.

Some of Octobers work. Reflecting on some of the brilliant Bronze Age decorated ware before spending the day in the studio tomorrow.

These old houses deserve to be studied as systematically & as seriously as Ostia or Knossos or Ur" The more I read of William Pantin, the more I admire him
